Ti can change many things.
The ambitions of youth, innocent friendships, love promised to last till the end, and past regrets.
At least in the mont Dong Jiangling ceased breathing, Li Ji'an felt he had accepted this life without further regrets.
This is the power of ti, making him see reality clearly, recognize his ordinary self, and simply put, accept his fate!
On the road back to Biluo Marketplace, Li Ji'an walked slowly, reminiscing about Dong Jiangling's life, deepening his understanding of ti.
"My greatest advantage, besides being able to start over, is experiencing the long passage of ti firsthand... If I could transform ti into so sort of tangible ability, then even without relying on cultivation realm, perhaps I would be invincible years from now."
In recent years, due to affairs with the Liu Family, Li Ji'an had little energy to study Cultivation Techniques and Magic, plus the Cultivation Technique exchanges at Biyun Sect demanded much higher than average resources, and he did not have the authority.
After all, Cultivation Techniques preserved by Core Formation Sects are not simple, and confidentiality is very strict.
Hence, progress in Cultivation Techniques and Magic was limited.
Nevertheless, he occasionally had flashes of inspiration, which he stored in his database.
Small accumulations lead to qualitative change, and one day there will be unexpected rewards.
Approaching the marketplace, Li Ji'an disperses so mixed emotions brought by Dong Jiangling, returning to clarity.
At this mont, dawn light was faint, and the marketplace was silent.
"Whew~" Suddenly, a gust of dark wind rapidly escapes the marketplace.
Li Ji'an's Divine Sense swept over, discovering a Foundation Establishnt Late Stage cultivator's Escape Light, only it was unlike ordinary cultivators, enveloped in dense Yin Sha Qi.
This aura he had only sensed on the Liu Family Ancestor.
"What are you looking at?" In a blink, the figure reached nearby and issued a sinister rebuke at Li Ji'an.
Simultaneously, the Escape Light charged directly at Li Ji'an.
Feeling a killing intent, Li Ji'an frowned slightly, and his Concealing Breath Technique contracted, revealing a Foundation Establishnt Middle Stage aura.
"Humph!" As the figure was about to reach Li Ji'an, sensing the sudden rise in aura, it snorted coldly, and drifted off direction, escaping once again.
"A Demon Cultivator?" Li Ji'an watched it escape out of sight, feeling slightly surprised.
Could Demon Cultivators dare to venture into Cangyun State?
"Is it for the Core Formation Holy Pill or that Golden Body Technique Cultivation Technique?"
"To appear so openly in the marketplace... could it be that Ten Thousand Laws Palace and the Demon Realm have reached so secret exchange agreent?" Returning to the inn, Li Ji'an thought through this connection.
Earlier, he heard Ten Thousand Laws Palace lowered its stance to negotiate with the Demon Realm, wanting to enter the Demon Realm for Liu Family Ancestor.
Eventually, it seems they achieved this goal, but only allowed below Core Formation cultivators entry, without guaranteeing safety, rely promising Core Formation and above True n in the Demon Sect wouldn't act.
Xiao Changfeng returned to the Sect half a year ago and specially t with Li Ji'an before entering the Demon Realm.
"Knock knock knock!"
"Warning!"
"There is Demonic Qi!"
Until Li Ji'an had already put the matter behind him did the marketplace finally detect the traces of that Demon Cultivator.
In an instant, the Grand Array of the marketplace activated, with the Qin Family group of marketplace managers in a panic.
Before long, the city was on lockdown, a large group of Qin Family Law Enforcent Cultivators searched house to house.
It is said demon cultivator traces were found in the marketplace's library, a Library Guardian Cultivator was drained of all Essence Blood, the library was flipped into chaos, and demonic aura lingered on site.
Before long, a Fake Pill montum entered the marketplace.
"Open the door, open the door, searching for demon cultivators." Quickly, a team of cultivators arrived at the inn to search.
Li Ji'an's expression moved slightly: "It seems Ten Thousand Laws Palace and the Demon Realm's secret agreent is limited to True Pill level forces in the Celestial Cyan Domain."
"Boom boom boom!" It was soon Li Ji'an's guest room's turn.
"Huh, Alchemist Li? You... Please pardon us, Alchemist Li, a demon cultivator sneaked into the marketplace last night, the Ancestor ordered us to check for demon cultivators, sorry for the disturbance." Li Ji'an opened the door, and the cultivator blocking the way was a Qin Family guard previously seen during the deal of Spiritual Bamboo.
Li Ji'an nodded slightly: "No problem, resisting demon cultivators is everyone's responsibility, moreover, when entering the marketplace last night, I seed to encounter one who might have been a demon cultivator."
He had nothing to hide, so spoke openly.
"Oh? That this event still exists? Then... may I invite Alchemist Li to et the Ancestor with ?" The guard's eyes lit up.
"Certainly." Li Ji'an nodded his agreent.
Shortly thereafter, Li Ji'an led Xiaoqiao following the guard to the marketplace's main hall.
Qin Henian was pacing back and forth in the hall, a few Qin Family juniors respectfully bowing their heads.
"Ancestor, Alchemist Li has a lead." At this mont, the guard reported loudly.
"Hmm?" Thereupon, Qin Henian looked at Li Ji'an coming in, particularly scrutinizing Xiaoqiao following behind.
"Junior greets Master Qin." Li Ji'an bowed with Xiaoqiao.
"Haha, Xiaoli, no need for much ceremony, have a seat." Qin Henian relaxed his previously agitated deanor, smiling and waving.
He was not surprised by Li Ji'an's visit.
After all, previously Guo Zilan had already told him about inviting Li Ji'an and Xiaoqiao to reside in the Tier Three Spirit Vein.
Though he had not agreed at the ti, there were concerns.
Now coming personally to investigate, was reasonable and understandable.
"What brings Alchemist Li to the marketplace?" Nonetheless, he deliberately asked despite knowing.
"Junior faces the Late Period threshold, silent for too long, seeking to find my own opportunity." Li Ji'an stated candidly.
"Hahaha, friend, you have co to the right place, Odd Stone Forest's Tier Three Spirit Vein might be the opportunity you are looking for." Qin Henian, although conversing with Li Ji'an, had his thoughts focused on Xiaoqiao, his words were straightforward.
