Chapter 41
After a long time.
Although the lava was still rolling inside the mountain, it was no longer warm.
The heat wave from the lava that even True Qi could not block had completely disappeared.
It was just that he did not know the reason.
Therefore, the lava did not solidify and continued to churn.
On the high platform.
A breeze blew.
Li Xuan's long hair and robe moved because of the wind.
His aura surged.
However, he had only broken through one realm.
He had only reached the fifth level of the Great Grandmaster realm.
Compared to the scene of Li Xuan holding the Dragon Abyss Sword previously...
Too low.
It was just that from his fourth level Great Grandmaster realm, breaking through to the fifth level Great Grandmaster realm was honestly too low.
Ding! Congratulations, host, acting progress increased: 1.27%
The system's voice sounded.
Li Xuan slowly opened his eyes.
His expression was filled with surprise.
"What a great fortune!"
Crack.
He raised his hand and gently pinched it. Li Xuan immediately felt the surging power in his entire body.
That scarlet True Qi.
Although it was refined very little, almost 99% of it was used to temper his physical body.
To put it immodestly-
Purely in terms of external techniques, Li Xuan's current external cultivation was not below the top Fierce Refinement Great Grandmaster.
It was definitely a top-notch existence.
Ever since he activated the system, Li Xuan's cultivation had been improving very quickly, and his foundation was also very solid.
However, the only way to practice external techniques was to temper the body.
With Li Xuan's personality, his external techniques would naturally not be too powerful.
After all, in this world…
He trained his muscles, bones, and skin on the outside, and his breath on the inside.
They were two different directions of martial arts cultivation. The two could not be said to be unrelated, but the relationship was really not big.
It was not the martial arts theory of Li Xuan's previous life that complemented each other from the inside out and from the outside in.
External cultivation was to refine and build the ultimate body.
Blood Qi turned into smoke, a punch and a kick could shake mountains and rivers.
However, it was too difficult to cultivate and consumed too many treasures.
Basically, they just casually practiced external techniques and then turned to internal techniques.
Now, this opportunity had allowed Li Xuan to silently have the cultivation of a ninth level Physique Refinement Grandmaster.
This time…
It was a huge profit!
Feeling his own strength, Li Xuan had a satisfied expression.
"Not only did I get the true qi body tempering technique, but I also got the Human-Dragon Transformation of the Nine True Dragon Transformations. As long as I have enough resources in the future, I can continue to make breakthroughs in my external techniques!”
True Dragon Nine Transformations, Human Dragon Transformation.
This was the special concept that had brought Li Xuan to comprehend the Thwart Training Technique.
There was no upper limit to his realm, and he was quite powerful.
Of course.
The prerequisite was that there were sufficient resources. Otherwise, it would be impossible for a clever housewife to make bricks without rice.
"With my current abilities and strength, I might be able to fight a mighty figure at the integration of Heaven and man!”
Thinking about his combat strength, Li Xuan was in high spirits.
"But it's hard to say. After all, a mighty figure at the integration of Heaven and man realm can communicate with the Heaven and Earth Bridge and attract the power of nature. With the enhancement, his combat strength is simply monstrous and unparalleled.”
Unity of Heaven and Man Realm.
It was truly powerful to the point of being abnormal.
He suppressed the speculations in his heart.
Pa da.
Li Xuan raised his hand and grabbed the Dragon Abyss Sword.
Without the entanglement of the scarlet genuine Qi, the Dragon Abyss Sword was easily pulled out.
"Go and search for the medicinal herbs in the Cang Dragon's treasure!”
Turning around, Li Xuan's figure flashed and he jumped down from the high platform.
In two or three leaps, he had already left this place.
……
The Cang Dragon's treasures were mostly resources.
There were also all kinds of extremely old medicinal herbs, as well as some natural treasures that could greatly increase one's cultivation realm.
To be able to enter, one only needed to search carefully.
He would always be able to gain something.
As for the inheritance, there might only be something that Li Xuan had obtained.
The Sword Pavilion that Li Xuan had once entered was different.
The Sword Pavilion was the land of inheritance.
What he obtained inside were all kinds of exquisite sword techniques and mysterious sword essences.
After leaving the reverse scale.
Li Xuan also began to search all over the mountains and plains.
Moreover, he had already gained quite a bit.
In his sleeves, there were thousand-year-old spirit ginseng, Fire Lingzhi, and other top-grade medicinal herbs.
Unfortunately, he didn't have the ability to store a Sumeru in his mustard seed.
Otherwise-
It would not be a problem to empty the entire Cang Dragon's treasure!
"Although these medicinal herbs are top-grade, they are still a little too mediocre!”
Looking at the medicinal herbs in his hand, Li Xuan was slightly dissatisfied.
"It's not like we don't have these things in the royal treasury!”
He was more or less disappointed.
However, with Li Xuan's indifferent attitude, this disappointment was only for a moment.
The Dragon Abyss Sword floated behind him.
Li Xuan continued to walk through this mountain range and did not meet anyone.
……
Half a day later.
His pockets were filled with all kinds of medicinal herbs that were at least a thousand years old.
Li Xuan found a place to sit down.
"I won't look for them. I'll wait quietly for the people outside to expel us.”
His tone was indifferent and casual. Li Xuan really did not care much about these things.
He sat down cross-legged and began to circulate a cultivation technique that he had been cultivating since he was young.
Internal training--
After reaching the Xiantian realm, one would be able to communicate with the wandering spiritual energy between heaven and earth with their internal energy. After drawing the spiritual energy into the body, one would be able to form true energy that far surpassed internal energy in all aspects.
By using true qi to open up the meridians in the entire body, one could reach the great grandmaster realm.
The realm after the great grandmaster realm.
Cultivation began to emphasize two words-
Comprehension!
If one could say that hard work could make up for one's incompetence before the martial grandmaster realm, then the realm after the martial grandmaster realm really depended on talent.
If one's talent was not enough, it would be difficult for one's cultivation to advance.
It was not impossible for him to stop at the ninth stage Great Grandmaster realm for his entire life.
When Li Xuan sat down to cultivate.
The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy in the Azure Dragon's Treasure surged into Li Xuan's body and into his dantian, causing his already huge True Qi to grow stronger and purer.
After all, as a prince, even if Li Xuan did not like to cultivate.
However, his cultivation technique was definitely not ordinary. At the very least, it would not be inferior.
The others were still bitterly searching for medicinal herbs and treasures that could increase their cultivation. No one had expected that Li Xuan would directly choose to sit down and cultivate here.
This was probably the difference between people!
……
Three days passed.
Time passed in the blink of an eye.
Although there was no sun and moon in the Cang Dragon's treasure vault, there was no concept of time.
However, the outside world had it.
In front of the altar.
Fu Su and Zhao Yinman were both waiting here.
"Eldest brother, do you think Li Xuan can become a martial grandmaster?”
Looking at the altar, Zhao Yinman asked,"
"If he becomes a martial grandmaster, will little sister still be worthy of such a proud son of heaven?”
Zhao Yinman lost her confidence.
If it was at the Qutai Manor banquet, when she first met Li Xuan, she still had some confidence.
However, during this period of time, after carefully understanding Li Xuan's past, Zhao Yinman realized that...
She didn't have the capital to consider it at all!
Now was not the time for her to consider whether she should marry Li Xuan or not. Instead, it was whether she was qualified to marry Li Xuan.
"Don't belittle yourself!"
Hearing this, Fu Su smiled."
"If both of you are in love, then it won't be a problem. Little sister, your identity and status aren't inferior to Brother Li. Although your talent in cultivation isn't outstanding, it's not like you don't have it.”
Zhao Yinman gently nodded.
He didn't say anything else.
Fu Su was a man after all. He did not understand what it meant to have a young girl's feelings as a poem!
After two hours.
Fu Su looked at the noon sun in the sky."
"It's about time. Open the Cang Dragon's treasure and let them out!”
Hearing Fu Su's words.
The two ninth stage Great Grandmaster realm eunuchs who were guarding in front of the altar cupped their hands and replied,"
"Here!"
After responding to Fusu.
The two eunuchs attacked again like before. Two huge streams of true energy surged into the altar and reactivated it. When the light stabilized, figures walked out from the light one after another.
One after another.
The number of people who went in was the number of people who came out.
It wasn't that no one was fighting inside.
However, although there were fights, there were no bloody scenes.
Therefore, no one died in the Cang Dragon's treasure.
Buzz!
When everyone came out.
In the last ray of light, Li Xuan carried a bag of things in his hand and casually carried the Dragon Abyss Sword as he walked out.
Seeing Li Xuan come out.
Before Fu Su and Zhao Yinman could say anything, the people who came out earlier all glared at Li Xuan.
He looked like he wanted to make a move, but he did not dare to.
Seeing this scene.
Without asking, Fu Su knew what was going on.
It must be that Li Xuan had fought with everyone inside. Moreover, it seemed that he had also plundered a lot of good things from the others, which was why he had aroused such great resentment from the others.
"Your Highness, you're back!"
Ever since Li Xuan entered, Chang Ping, who had been guarding the altar and had never left, came to Li Xuan's side.
He glanced at Chang Ping.
He casually handed the item in his hand and the Dragon Abyss Sword to Chang Ping."
"Keep these herbs well. I have great use for them…There are three Vermilion Fruits inside. I'll reward you with one. After you consume it, it'll be enough for you to break through to the middle three realms of Zongshi realm.”
Hearing this.
Chang Ping bowed and said,
"Here!"
Chang Ping naturally knew what the Vermilion Fruit was. He also knew that his current strength was too weak and could not help Li Xuan deal with some matters at all, so he did not refuse Li Xuan's reward.
After instructing Chang Ping.
Li Xuan immediately took a step forward and came in front of Fu Su and Zhao Yinman.
"Brother Fusu, Lady Yin Man!"
After greeting the two of them, Li Xuan's gaze could not help but fall on Zhao Yinman.
He didn't pay much attention to it the last time.
This time, when he looked at Zhao Yinman again, Li Xuan felt that Zhao Yinman was very good-looking!
And her figure was also top-notch.
If he were to marry her, it would be pretty good.
"Congratulations, Brother Li, for your bountiful harvest!”
Fu Su naturally saw the things that Li Xuan had brought for Chang Ping.
He said,"
"It seems that Brother Li has obtained a good opportunity?”
Although it was just a guess.
However, Fu Su told him directly-
Li Xuan had obtained quite a good thing from the Cang Dragon's Treasure!
"Of course!"
After nodding his head with a smile, Li Xuan, Fu Su, and Zhao Yinman talked as they walked.
He left the altar.
As for the other young people from the Hundred Schools of Philosophy, they also left one after another.
This was the Imperial Manor.
They were not allowed to be impudent!
Moreover, with the entrance to the Cang Dragon's treasure here, how could there be only two martial grandmasters guarding here?
Even if these two Great Grandmasters were at peak ninth stage realm, it was not enough to look at.
There must be even more powerful experts hiding in the dark.
……
On the carriage back.
Li Xuan closed his eyes to rest. His expression was calm and composed.
" The Cang Dragon Treasure... If it had abundant resources, it might indeed have the power to help people break through to the Martial Dao Golden Core Realm in one fell swoop. Unfortunately, just like what Ying Zheng said, the Cang Dragon Treasure has already declined.”
The Sword Garret of Tang seemed to be much more precious than the Cang Dragon's treasure.
He couldn't help but smile.
Li Xuan completely suppressed these things in his heart.
He returned to the Imperial Residence.
Li Xuan directly found Xu Ji.
"Your Highness, everything has been prepared for the return journey.”
Seeing Li Xuan, Xu Ji immediately began to report his work.
"We can return at any time!"
He nodded in satisfaction.
Li Xuan casually threw a jade box to Xu Ji.
Whoosh.
After pouring himself a glass of wine, Li Xuan said,
"This is a 300-year-old Vermilion Fruit. Eating it can increase your Genuine Qi by at least 100 years. It can also refine the impurities in your body. It's a rare good thing. You've worked hard during this period of time.”
Swoosh--
His eyes widened.
Xu Ji was in disbelief at first, but then he was pleasantly surprised.
"A 300-year-old Vermilion Fruit? A priceless treasure!"
Surprised.
Xu Ji was a little terrified.
"Your Highness, won't it be a waste to reward me with such a precious thing?”
Pa da.
He put down the wine glass in his hand.
Li Xuan frowned.
"If I reward you, just take it. Don't make excuses. You clearly want it very much, but why are you acting so hypocritical?”
Hearing this.
Xu Ji immediately accepted the jade box happily and clutched his pocket tightly. He treasured it very much.
Looking at his useless appearance.
Li Xuan said casually,
"When you go back later, eat this Vermilion Fruit and increase your strength. On the way back, you'll have some strength to protect yourself. Don't be reluctant! If you follow this king, as long as you don't betray me, you will have a mouthful of food to drink!”
Li Xuan was never stingy with rewards.
But at the very least, you have to be loyal and know how to do things!
Li Xuan wanted to tell Xu Ji-
It was an honor to be Li Xuan's dog!
Xu Ji replied with a serious expression,
"Your highness is right. I, Xu Ji, am willing to go through fire and water for your highness, even if I have to die!”
He was expressing his loyalty to Xu Ji.
Li Xuan waved his hand indifferently.
"Alright, speak less and do more. In the future, you will be rewarded! Go down! Tonight, this king will bid farewell to the First Emperor. Tomorrow morning, the diplomatic mission will leave Xianyang and return to the Great Tang.”
Going back would not be as leisurely as when he came.
As fast as he could, he had to have as many pieces as he could.
"Here!"
Xu Ji cupped his hands in response and immediately retreated.
After Xu Ji left.
Li Xuan stood up and looked at the sky under the bright sunlight.
It was unknown what he was thinking.
……
Xianyang Palace.
In a large hall.
With Ying Zheng as the leader, Fu Su and Zhao Yinman as companions, and Li Xuan as the guest, they had dinner together.
This was equivalent to a family banquet.
Therefore, there weren't too many rules. Ying Zheng also put down his usual dignified face, and gave people a much gentler feeling.
But even so-
Fu Su and Zhao Yinman didn't dare to be too impudent and behaved accordingly.
On the other hand, Li Xuan looked as usual.
It was as if he did not care about Ying Zheng's majesty at all.
"Are you sure you want to go back?"
After eating for a while, Ying Zheng slowed down his chopsticks and said,"
"Do you know that the dangers you'll encounter on your way back will probably be much more than when you came back? The people you'll be protecting this time probably won't be enough even if you're a martial grandmaster.”
Hearing this.
Fu Su and Zhao Yinman also put down their chopsticks. They were silent and only looked at Li Xuan.
When Ying Zheng was speaking, they did not dare to interrupt.
Li Xuan also put down the chopsticks in his hand.
"I want to go back!"
He frowned.
Ying Zheng looked at Li Xuan calmly and said,"
"Why are you in such a hurry? This was not a wise choice!”
He shook his head.
Li Xuan said,
"There's no special reason. I just feel that I should go back! Next, there would be a great change in the Central Plains. Although it was dangerous, it was not without opportunities. The main thing was to see how they operated!”
Hearing this.
Ying Zheng took a deep look at Li Xuan, then said,"
"So that's the case. Then zhen won't stop you! Be careful on your way. From the moment you leave Xianyang, you must be careful!”
He nodded seriously.
Li Xuan naturally understood what Ying Zheng meant.
If they left Xianyang, they might be attacked!
After all, there were still many traitors from the Six Nations that could not be forgotten in Great Qin's world.
It was difficult to guarantee that there would not be any problems.
After chatting for a while.
Li Xuan said and left.
Zhao Yinman, who had been silent all this while, suddenly said,"
"Father, your son will send Li Xuan off!”
Hearing Zhao Yinman's request.
Ying Zheng was stunned for a moment, and so was Li Xuan.
However, there was naturally no way he could refuse such a request.
After obtaining Ying Zheng's permission, the two of them were finally able to enter the city.
Zhao Yinman led Li Xuan out of the hall.
"Fu Su, what do you think of Li Xuan?”
After the two of them left, Ying Zheng suddenly asked Fu Su, who had stayed behind.
He did not know what Ying Zheng's intention was.
Fu Su pondered for a moment."
"Not bad! He seemed to be cynical and straightforward, but in fact, he was meticulous. It was as if he knew everything in his heart…His son really could not grasp Li Xuan!”
He did not care about Fu Su's answer.
Ying Zheng merely smiled and said,"
"Of course you can't grasp it. If you want to see through Li Xuan, you have to at least reach my position!”
It was as if he was lamenting.
Standing up, Ying Zheng clasped his hands behind his back and said,"
"Brother Xuan has a good son! "In time, Li Xuan will definitely become a powerful enemy of Great Qin. He might even become an important existence in the Central Plains gambling game between me and Brother Xuan!”
His gaze shifted to Fu Su.
Ying Zheng said,"
"Fu Su, although you're older than Li Xuan, you're too far behind him.”
