Chapter 497: Chapter 503: Chance Encounter Chapter 497: Chapter 503: Chance Encounter It was quite evident that the Li family would almost certainly be unable to find a fifth-order Spirit Beast Egg suitable for Li Zhirui.
As for Hugan’s three Spirit Beasts, they had plenty of Spiritual Objects to consu. Although they hadn’t made a breakthrough yet, their mana had increased significantly.
After arranging for the several Spirit Beasts, Li Zhirui announced that he would be entering closed-door training.
This ti in seclusion, besides his daily cultivation practice, his main focus was to deduce spells and contemplate the Purification Principle.
Li Zhirui did not lack offensive and defensive spells, but lacked an outstanding Escape Skill, an area in which he needed to spend more thought.
As for contemplating the Laws, that was a bit of an overstatent.
Currently, he was rely a minor Nascent Soul Cultivator. Even when he had chosen a Law during Nascent Soul, it was like buying a seed, which was not yet ti to sprout.
The primary task in the Nascent Soul Realm was to sunify the Spiritual Soul, aiming for the Divine Transformation in order to break through and prepare for the Ascension to the Upper Realm by contemplating the Laws.
What Li Zhirui ant by contemplating the Laws was more about getting a vague sense of them, hoping to gain so insights.
——
“Brother, why don’t we go out and travel for a few days?” Li Chengshuo asked expectantly.
Li Chengsheng thought it over and finally nodded in agreent. The path of seeking the Dao through cultivation was never about working in isolation.
Moreover, he had reached a bottleneck, and perhaps traveling could lead to so gains that would help him break through to the late Foundation Establishnt stage.
“Why don’t you calculate and see what we might encounter on the trip?”
“No way!” Li Chengsheng imdiately refused. One should not divine for oneself!
Moreover, such spontaneous plans were filled with uncertainties. To divine for such things might incur a significant cost.
In fact, during this period, not only the siblings Li Chengsheng and Li Chengshuo ventured out but also many other clan mbers were preparing to go out and explore.
This had a lot to do with the new batch of Elders appointed by Li Zhirui. They were young, their passion had not cooled, and they tended to be bold and progressive in their actions.
So after simply notifying their family, the two flew out of Wanxian Island.
——
After traveling for several months, Jiang Fengwu finally reached Green Lotus State.
The mont she stepped into this place, she was t with an overwhelming aura of grim solemnity.
In this land, where bloody battles erupted endlessly, even the air was saturated with the stench of blood, staining the earth beneath her feet a dark red.
“I hope this will be a new beginning for !” Jiang Fengwu murmured softly to herself.
Because Green Lotus State had always been a proving ground for Cultivators seeking breakthroughs, there was already a set procedure for newcors. Once Jiang Fengwu took care of these matters, she could consider whether to join an existing squad or form one herself.
No matter the choice, as long as she could fight and kill Demon Cultivators, that would be good.
Jiang Fengwu gave it so thought and decided to form her own Demon Hunting Squad.
The reason she chose not to join another team was that suddenly inserting herself into an existing squad could disrupt their rhythm.
The second reason, however, was that Jiang Fengwu didn’t want to submit to another’s command.
However, because the squad was newly ford and without any reputation, she was the only lone mber, which looked quite pitiful.
The next day, at dawn.
A sharp and piercing whistle sounded, signaling the invasion of demon cultivators and also alerting the cultivators to prepare for defense.
Apart from Jiang Fengwu, who found it sowhat novel the first ti she heard it, other cultivators had long been ready and vied with each other to fly towards where the demon cultivators were, fearing they wouldn’t get an opponent for themselves.
“Who would have thought demon cultivators would be so popular in this place?” Jiang Fengwu said teasingly with a laugh.
She soon followed after them.
Thinking there were no extra demon cultivators to deal with, and that she was just there to observe, Jiang Fengwu didn’t expect a demon cultivator to actively seek her out.
“Why have you chosen ?” Jiang Fengwu asked calmly in the face of the arrogant demon cultivator, “Is it because I look easy to bully?”
Perhaps influenced by Li Zhirui, Jiang Fengwu liked to play the pig to eat the tiger when she was away from ho, intentionally concealing her true cultivation level.
“Enough with the nonsense!” the demon cultivator snorted impatiently. Black smoke billowed from his palm, corrosive and swift, as it sped towards Jiang Fengwu.
“Is that all you’ve got? You’re too weak! Just give up and surrender to avoid suffering,” Jiang Fengwu easily scattered the black smoke mid-course and provocatively derided the demon cultivator with a look of disdain.
The already emotionally unstable demon cultivator, continuously provoked by Jiang Fengwu, instantly lost his sanity, attacking the surroundings like a madman.
While such an attack seed fierce, it would not take long before a significant portion of his mana would be depleted, making it impossible for him to last long.
“I’ve entertained you enough; it’s ti to end this!” said Jiang Fengwu with a cold expression.
The opponent, not a match for Jiang Fengwu even under normal circumstances, now also spent most of his mana, was easily subdued by her!
She then revealed her concealed cultivation level, which was not the initial stage of Golden Core as he had assud, but the late stage of Golden Core—letting him die with full understanding.
From that day on, Jiang Fengwu truly began her life in Green Lotus State.
Battles erupted daily, with casualties on both sides. Even Jiang Fengwu, in the late stage of Golden Core, suffered several serious injuries.
Throughout this process, Jiang Fengwu, with her trendous strength, attracted many cultivators wishing to join her Demon Hunting Squad.
However, Jiang Fengwu, adhering to a philosophy of perfection, rejected most cultivators, keeping only a handful of them.
But for those who knew these few cultivators, it was clear how wise Jiang Fengwu’s approach was.
Offense, defense, support, healing, reconnaissance, and more—all aspects were covered, creating a very comprehensive team.
This was all due to Jiang Fengwu’s experience and insights from when she was the Devil Hunting Squad Leader—events that took place many years ago, yet still deeply imprinted in her sea of consciousness.
As such, Jiang Fengwu’s squad always returned full from hunting demon cultivators, causing envy among the other cultivators, resulting in even more applications to join her squad.
One day, Jiang Fengwu and her companions had just returned from outside the city.
“Aunt Fengwu?! What are you doing here?” Li Zhiyue asked in surprise upon seeing the person in front of her.
Jiang Fengwu was also surprised to find herself here, addressing Li Zhiyue who hadn’t returned ho for many years, “I’ve encountered so issues with my cultivation and am looking for an opportunity for a breakthrough.”
“I see!”
Li Zhiyue said sowhat embarrassingly, “I just happened to be passing by and am on my way back to the family now. Does Aunt Fengwu have any ssage that I should convey back ho?”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Fengwu was more astonished but showed no sign of it on her face, replying simply, “Wait a mont, please!”
She then took out a blank Jade Slip and inscribed all she wanted to say into it, entrusting Li Zhiyue to bring it back to Wanxian Island.
