Chapter 99 The Rapid Advancement of the Great Evolution Technique
Chapter 99 The Rapid Advancement of the Great Evolution Technique
The moment he landed, Liu Cangwu's gaze locked onto the small building where Luo Qing had rested. His divine sense swept out like a tide, probing the activity inside the building.
But the next moment, his brows furrowed and his face grew increasingly gloomy.
His divine sense swept around the small building but found no trace of Luo Qing, only a cup of unfinished spiritual tea.
Where are they?
He spoke softly, his voice cold and piercing, as if it came from the deepest hell, devoid of any warmth.
"He was... taken away by Song Li of the Earthly Fiend Peak."
The guard monk said tremblingly.
At the same time, he cursed Luo Qing in his heart for insisting on returning to the island from the pier under his jurisdiction!
"You know what the consequences are for disobeying orders."
Liu Cangwu did not show any surprise upon hearing this, but he also had no intention of letting the guarding cultivator go.
"Spare me! Elder Liu, spare me... uh!"
Before he could finish begging for mercy, several willow branches carrying a bluish-black aura shot through his chest, instantly turning him into a dried-up corpse!
"That bastard surnamed Sun, you ruined my grand plan! This isn't over!"
With a cold face, Liu Cangwu looked at Di Sha Peak, uttered a sentence in a deep voice, and then flew away without the slightest hesitation, disappearing into the horizon.
......
On the other side, Luo Qing, protected by Song Li on the gourd magic artifact, sped all the way and successfully arrived at the gate of the Black Bamboo Courtyard on the Earthly Fiend Peak.
As the light faded, Song Li landed first, turning to look at Luo Qing behind him. His expression had lost its eagerness and gained a more solemn and serious look.
"Junior Nephew Luo, you can focus on your cultivation here. I will protect you from all the troubles in the outside world."
But there's one thing you must remember: from now on, unless I personally summon you, you'd better not step out of Earthly Fiend Peak again. I will also find a way to turn down any missions assigned by the sect for you.
Seeing Luo Qing's calm expression, seemingly not fully grasping the danger involved, a hint of apprehension flashed in Song Li's eyes as he added:
"Perhaps you are unaware that among the disciples who participated in the island raiding mission with you this time, one of them is a direct descendant of Elder Liu of the sect."
Now that direct descendant has not returned and his fate is unknown, all of you survivors are being watched by Elder Liu. If you are not careful and fall into his hands, the consequences will be unimaginable!
Luo Qing really scared Song Li half to death this time. Because the restrictions were so strict, he still didn't know where Luo Qing and the others had gone to plunder or why they had suffered such heavy casualties.
To ensure that Luo Qing would not encounter similar dangers again in the future, he had no choice but to force Luo Qing to stay on Di Sha Peak and cut off all possibility of him going out.
Luo Qing bowed deeply to Song Li and readily agreed:
"Thank you for your kind reminder, Uncle Song. I will keep it in mind and will never step out of the Earthly Fiend Peak without permission in the future, so as not to cause you any trouble."
His tone was sincere and his attitude respectful, but as soon as he finished speaking, his tone shifted slightly, and his face revealed just the right amount of difficulty and urgency:
"However, my master also knows that my cultivation has now reached the peak of Qi Refining, and I am about to establish my foundation. But I do not have any Foundation Establishment Pills available, nor do I have any materials to assist in the foundation establishment. If I cannot leave Earthly Fiend Peak for a long time..."
Luo Qing's words seemed to indicate that he was genuinely worried about the Foundation Establishment process, but in reality, he had other plans.
He had already broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage and didn't need the Foundation Establishment Pill at all. He just wanted to test Song Li's attitude and how eager he was for Song Li to achieve his Foundation Establishment.
Song Li's attitude precisely reflects the movements of the Sun family patriarch, allowing Luo Qing to deduce how long it will take for him to take action.
Upon hearing this, Song Li frowned slightly, a hint of heartache flashing in his eyes, but considering Luo Qing's role, he gritted his teeth and said:
"You don't need to worry about that. I will send you all the materials you need for Foundation Establishment, whether it's Foundation Establishment Pills or other spiritual medicines, as soon as possible. You just need to focus on your seclusion and do your best to break through to Foundation Establishment."
Seeing Song Li's feigned generosity while actually looking pained, Luo Qing had already formed a judgment in her mind, but her expression became even more respectful and grateful:
"Thank you for your kindness, Martial Uncle! I will certainly devote myself to seclusion and cultivation!"
He knew in his heart that, judging from Song Li's readily agreed promise, the actions of the Sun family patriarch were not far off, and he probably didn't have many years to wait.
That's fine too. His cultivation has already reached the early stage of Foundation Establishment, giving him the ability to venture into the Chaotic Star Sea. Being trapped on the Extreme Yin Island will not be conducive to his subsequent cultivation.
After seeing Song Li off, Luo Qing withdrew her gaze, turned around, and pushed open the gate of the Black Bamboo Courtyard.
Although he had not returned for more than a year, the courtyard was still spotless, just as it had been when he left, due to the presence of both restrictions and formations. The path paved with blue bricks was neat and clean, and the black bamboo in the corner of the wall was still tall and verdant.
Only in the backyard, where the bone-strengthening pills were once buried, a few tender green bamboo shoots have sprouted out at some unknown time. The slender bamboo stalks are topped with a few new leaves, swaying gently in the breeze, exuding a sense of vitality.
Luo Qing walked slowly to the backyard, her gaze falling on the few young bamboo stalks. Her fingertips gently brushed across the tender green leaves as she murmured softly, her tone carrying a hint of determination and resolve:
"If I leave again next time, I won't come back!"
After saying that, he slowly withdrew his hand, turned around and went to the quiet room where he cultivated.
In the days that followed, he followed Song Li's instructions, pretending to be well-behaved and closing the courtyard gate, putting on the appearance of being engrossed in seclusion.
In reality, he did not cultivate any magical power, nor did he prepare for the so-called "foundation building". Instead, he instructed Meng Bao to fully analyze the three techniques and secret arts, namely "Heavenly Demon Art", "Twelve Transformations of Awakening of Insects", and "Five-Colored Demon-Swallowing Technique", according to the plan he had already made.
He himself sat cross-legged on a futon in the room, closed his eyes, and devoted all his mind to cultivating the second level of the Great Evolution Technique.
Perhaps it was after suppressing the Soul-Eating Demon and seizing its supernatural powers that his ability to control his divine sense was greatly enhanced; or perhaps it was after experiencing a life-or-death trial in the secret realm that his state of mind was greatly tempered; or perhaps it was both.
This time, Luo Qing found that the difficulty of cultivating the second level of the Great Evolution Technique was much lower than before.
This unexpected turn of events naturally brought Luo Qing great joy.
He knew in his heart that the Great Evolution Technique was extremely important to him.
Once his cultivation progress accelerates, his divine sense will become stronger and stronger, and Meng Bao's efficiency in analyzing cultivation methods and secret techniques will also increase greatly. He will be able to get results faster and understand how to proceed in the future!
"Great, I hope things continue to go smoothly!"
......
Meanwhile, before Luo Qing had even gone into seclusion for a few days, Song Li spent a large sum of spirit stones to help him purchase a Foundation Establishment Pill.
The alchemy of the Chaotic Star Sea is affected by the resources of demon beasts. Any rare spiritual medicine that can be replaced by demon beast materials will be replaced.
This makes the Foundation Establishment Pills in the Chaotic Star Sea less scarce than those in Tiannan, but their price is still quite high.
