Chapter 259
by fanqienovelChapter 259: Body Refining Cultivators?
Indeed, Li Hui is the leader of a sect, recognized by the Jade Symbol Sect’s lineage, and after opening the treasure cabinet, his fortune lengthens even further.
Of course, the Daling Dynasty cannot be compared to the Grand Xuan Dynasty, and the sects of the Daling Dynasty cannot compete with those of the Grand Xuan Dynasty; the key lies in their ages.
Li Hui is quite young; age-wise, he appears younger after experiencing a death calamity. Although his recovery growth speed is rapid, he still looks under fifteen, at most fourteen years old—some might even say thirteen.
To exhibit the aura of a sect leader at such a young age, even if it’s merely enough to support a low-ranking sect, is indeed a terrifying thing. As long as he develops normally in the future, his prospects are boundless.
Disciples like Feng Du are called Young Masters, but that’s merely a title—he lacks the aura of a true sect leader, let alone even being close to it.
Yet, the overwhelming aura Li Hui casually reveals is extraordinary; if it appeared on those top sects’ adult true disciples, it might be acceptable, but on him, it feels like he’s Against the Heavens.
There’s no way out of this; the Jade Heart of the Earth Court tightly seals the treasure cabinet’s fortune, unable to suppress the sect leader aura additionally.
That kind of fortune can affect the entire continent. Once released, the consequences would be unimaginable. After all, Li Hui hasn’t fully grown, making him susceptible to premature demise! The Luo Han fruit also has its own fortune, suppressed and hidden by the Primitive Shell Symbol. Moreover, the exotic treasures on him also need to be concealed, so closing the seal can only make things dazzling.
Dazzling it may be! Considering that today’s banquet is anything but good, and since Aofeng Sect isn’t accepting male disciples, Li Hui decides to ruin the Grand Xuan Dynasty’s plans.
“Isn’t it just the Xuantian Road? Isn’t it just establishing the Yin Court? If the Master disagrees, the consequences will be serious.”
Alright then! The Master is after their treasures.
Before arriving, he heard rumors that the Grand Xuan Dynasty possesses a true dragon’s fang, already refined into a supreme treasure, capable of turning the skies and suppressing the underworld.
What is a supreme treasure?
Above the magical artifacts are spiritual treasures, and above spiritual treasures are supreme treasures. Even the ancestors of the Hongmo Sect don’t have the qualifications to use a supreme treasure.
Whether or not he can succeed is secondary, but at least Li Hui has the intention to try it.
He suddenly turns, looking at the Ghost Blood Dress, and waves his sleeve, saying, “The female official is bearing the Grand Xuan’s fortune; be careful, or you might not live to see the riches and glory—you might just end up sacrificing yourself. Of course, with a surname like Ghost, maybe you’re already waiting to die and become a ghost cultivator.”
“Watch your tongue, kid.” The Ghost Blood Dress sneers; she didn’t hear the sound from the jade throne about the sect leader’s aura. She believed that the Noble Concubine wanted to establish authority using Aofeng Sect, hence acted swiftly.
Li Hui takes a step aside, handing over the Ghost Blood Dress to Su Qing’er. Naturally, it’s better for women to fight women, even if Qing’er is still a girl.
“Hmph!” Despite her playful and carefree nature, Su Qing’er has received focused training from Aofeng Sect; she’s capable of putting up a fight. Swirling her form, she releases eighteen puppets, identical to her, surging forward to attack the Ghost Blood Dress.
“Little tricks!” The Ghost Blood Dress steps gracefully as lotuses bloom beneath her feet; with each blood lotus dispersing, a warrior appears to battle the puppets in a flurry.
At first, it’s refreshing and interesting, but after a while, it feels dull. Li Hui participated in the Wan Nest Island trial; even if he survived in the cracks without engaging in high-level battles, his perspective has changed drastically.
Those practitioners who survive to the late stage on Wan Nest Island possess ingenious methods; even a single spell can be filled with variations. He has seen the Blood Moni ancestor’s Blood Body, an experience so bizarre it cannot be described in words.
Having survived great calamity, merely traveling the path of the heart countless times, these sect geniuses are impressive, but compared to whom? Compared to the true disciples of the Hongmo Sect, they lag vastly behind, so it feels like child’s play now!
Calling it child’s play is no exaggeration! Su Qing’er’s speed and movement skills are good; however, she lacks battle experience. Sometimes, when she could seize the advantage and press the attack, she misses opportunities due to a slight delay in reaction.
Watching them battle back and forth, Li Hui realizes he is already extraordinary and not among the same kind. Even if these sect geniuses possess extraordinary talents, ultimate moves, and magical artifacts, when it comes to life-and-death struggles, they fall far short!
In the blink of life and death, it’s either live or die!!!
“Kid, you seem too relaxed. Let me show you how deep you are.” Feng Du observes as his sister grows increasingly aggressive and can’t help but feel itchy to act.
He unleashes his ultimate move, conjuring a terrifying ghost image behind him. With his mid-Gather Spirit cultivation paired with the Soul-Collecting Hand, it seems he can already see his palm sinking into the opponent’s chest to draw essence blood.
With a soft hum, before Feng Du can even understand what is happening, a flame rises to protect him, followed by a cacophony of sounds—the Heart-Guarding Ghost Mirror shatters on the ground into eight pieces, the Soul-repelling Flag becomes ashes, his Soul Whip fractures, and the ghostly cries of his boots turn into black water, leaving blood marks around his neck. If it weren’t for the command token bestowed by the sect exploding with bright light to protect him, he would have been decapitated.
Li Hui merely swung his short sword, using a considerable number of Explosive Talismans and lava talismans to envelop the Ice Picking Short Sword, opening up four times the speed while employing the Ideal Body. He never thought about using a second sword.
If he survives this, it will count as a great fortune; if not, he loses his head.
With Feng Du in a daze, Li Hui has already snatched a Storage Artifact from him with a wave of his hand. With a “bang,” he brutally crushed it, shocking the young lord of the Heavenly Ghost Sect into retreating rapidly.
Many items tumbled out, and among them were quite a few belly bands, which made the onlookers unable to hold back their laughter. But recalling Li Yingjun’s methods in Aofeng Sect, they felt a chill in their hearts.
“Body refining cultivators? Bodies like magical artifacts!”
“Aofeng Sect must have used a considerable amount of spiritual medicines to cultivate this kid, no wonder he appears so calm; he truly has some skills, without a hint of restraint!”
Li Hui scanned the area, taking a few items of interest, boldly robbing right in front of everyone, causing the sect geniuses to widen their eyes in shock.
The Ghost Blood Dress halted; she realized she had hit a brick wall. Just a single move had left her brother in such a miserable state. If they didn’t know their place and continued to provoke, then the siblings would truly become ghost cultivators, and the opponent lacks any soul-hunting techniques; otherwise, they would face death and disappearance.
“Alright, today is the celebration for my son, please take your seats, distinguished guests. Bring out exquisite wine and fine dishes, along with songs and dances!” Noble Concubine Wan’s words swept away all prior events, directly skipping the respect segment to begin feasting.
Li Hui’s face lit up with joy, thinking, “Is it easy to have a meal with you? I need to pack more to bring back for everyone to savor, and in the future, I can boast about having enjoyed the imperial banquet of the Grand Xuan Dynasty!”
Seated on the jade throne, with golden light cascading down before her, Noble Concubine Wan inquired, “Sir, what’s the background of this boy?”
“Body refinement with open orifices, profound skills reborn, fortune raging, and outstanding combat power!”
“Such a high evaluation?” Noble Concubine Wan felt elated and asked, “If he participates in the Xuantian Road, does he have a chance to break through the Yin-Yang barrier?”
“It’s hard to say. He may seem like a crane standing among chickens, but in truth, such individuals are the easiest to meet misfortune. Those who truly achieve great things often endure hardships, understanding both patience and timing. I see potential in Yuan Kui Sect’s disciple Luo Benchu, along with another young boy; they are truly talented!”
“Oh? Truly hidden gems among talents. But they still don’t know, this Xuantian Road is the Bridge of No Return!” Noble Concubine Wan curled her lips into a strange smile, mirroring the Ghost Blood Dress’s expression perfectly!
