"How … how can this be?" Ruan Yaozhu was evasive. Under the intense gaze of the nine-colored deer, she suddenly changed the topic and smiled, "If this goes on, we won't need other cultivators. He's enough."
"No!" The nine-colored deer immediately objected.
"Why not?"
"No means no!" A man and a woman alone in a room was too scary.
"Then forget it."
Ruan Yaozhu did not insist. She touched her hair and sighed in relief, feeling somewhat apologetic. There was nothing they didn't talk about, but this was related to his biggest secret and he couldn't reveal it so easily.
The nine-colored deer thought, Blockhead, oh blockhead, you can't even fool a stranger when you lie. Damn it, something must have happened. It's all that damn Li Qingshan's fault! I can't give up, I must get rid of him.
At this moment, he suddenly heard Li Qingshan's laughter. It was wanton and filled with lofty sentiments.
…
When Li Qingshan completely took over the Herb Garden, he quickly took care of everything. He sat down under the golden-leaf bodhi tree and silently felt his new power.
The newly born small world was still in its embryonic stage, like a bird that had just hatched from an egg. Many parts of it were still a chaotic haze of light, slowly circulating and brewing new laws. It would still take a long time for it to truly condense and take shape. His physique was still very weak, far from reaching the point where he could spread his wings and soar. So he couldn't estimate how strong it would be.
But he believed it would be very strong! Because right now, he was already very strong.
With this power, whether it was taking over the Cave of Xuanming or fighting with Chao Tianjiao, he had more confidence. Even Demon God Qiong Qi was no longer so far away.
He would eventually have to face these enemies one by one and win!
The most wonderful thing was that he had finally broken through the bottleneck of the Qilin Longevity Scheme. Like the other transformations, the first tier was still very weak. It was just another Innate Divine Ability. But this was only the beginning. Once he cultivated the Qilin Transformation to the fifth tier, the other transformations that were suppressed would be completely restored.
When that moment came. The new little world would be completely stable and formed. He was simply unable to imagine to what extent his cultivation would rise when that moment arrived, and how formidable his strength would be!
For others, it wasn't easy for them to overcome four Heavenly Tribulations. What followed next was a long transition period. It would take a very long time for him to accumulate enough energy before he would have the chance to try to transcend the fifth heavenly tribulation.
This accumulation period could be a hundred years, five hundred years, a thousand years, or even a lifetime.
However, to him, this was an opportunity for him to soar!
Perhaps it was still a steep cliff in front of him, but he had grown a pair of wings. It could easily fly over high mountains and cliffs. It was entirely possible for him to undergo five heavenly tribulations in thirty years.
Because he had been suppressed in the Daemon King Realm for far too long. He should have been able to transcend the fourth heavenly tribulation many years ago, but he had stopped due to various reasons.
It wasn't that he was stagnating. Instead, he was constantly forging ahead and accumulating power, lowering his overall strength by a level. In the human realm, he created a new source of power, the Unfettered Heavenly Scripture.
The appearance of the two tribulation lightning weapons was very likely related to this. It seemed that even the heavens could not tolerate such a monster and wanted to strangle him in the cradle.
However, he still withstood the will of heaven. After enduring the long night, he saw a glimmer of light.
When the hero grew from the iron cradle …
This was not a slow and long transition period, but an explosive period of rapid advancement!
His next goals were the fifth tier of Qilin, the fifth tier of Ape Demon, and the initial success of the Unfettered Heavenly Scripture. As long as he achieved these three goals, how hard would it be to transcend the fifth heavenly tribulation? How hard would it be to become a Daemon Sovereign or Human Sovereign? Becoming a direct disciple would be as easy as pie!
What True Dragon Ao Xuan? He's not even qualified to be his mount. What Eldest Senior Sister Chao Tianjiao? Hmm, her figure is not bad. I can consider her as a mount. And that damned rabbit, he drank my wine and stepped on my face. This is intolerable.
Watch me crush them one by one, then fight Qiong Qi in the demonic realm. Wouldn't that be fun!
"Hahahaha!"
Li Qingshan laughed wildly. The Bodhi tree trembled, and his laughter spread throughout the entire Hundred Herb Garden.
The cultivators all criticized, "A villain intoxicated by success! He just replaced Shen Yu Shu, there's no need to be so smug! "
No one could understand his thoughts, just like how a sparrow could not understand the ambitions of a great swan.
No, perhaps there was one person.
In the Hundred Herb Cave Abode, Ruan Yaozhu recalled the stormy sea and the conversation between Li Qingshan and the Demon Infant.
"… Does he really think he can defeat Demon God Qiong Qi and ascend to the Nine Heavens?"
She kept thinking about this sentence. Did the Demon God Qiong Qi that the Demon Infant mentioned really refer to the twelve Demon Gods in the demonic realm?
How could a mere Nascent Soul cultivator be related to such an existence? Even the Supreme Sect Master of the Myriad Phenomenon Sect, the legendary Old Man of Heavenly Book, might not be a match for Demon God Qiong Qi …
Thinking of this, she shook her head. No, although the Supreme Sect Master was a Perfected Immortal, he did not specialize in combat. He would definitely not be a match for Demon God Qiong Qi! Even the Great Emperor Zhenwu could not kill the twelve Demon Gods. Yet, a mere Nascent Soul cultivator wanted to become an enemy of them. It was simply absurd.
However, it was this absurd answer that explained everything.
Why was he in such a rush to advance and gambled like crazy, as if he did not care what would happen if he lost? Why did he not cower in the face of a true disciple and even dared to challenge him to a battle? His bravery was astonishing.
That was because there was a stronger enemy and a more terrifying fate waiting for him.
It was precisely because of this that the strange Demon Infant had appeared.
The Book of Freedom was definitely not a trap that Spirit Venerable Guihai had set for him. Otherwise, it would not have been so troublesome. Furthermore, the birth of a new Heavenly Book was a major event that would be announced to the entire Myriad Phenomenon Sect. The Book of Freedom had long been clearly listed in the Myriad Phenomenon Heavenly Book, and disciples could choose to cultivate it.
Then there was only one explanation. The Nascent Soul cultivated from the Book of Freedom was more prone to Qi Deviation. They might even suffer Qi Deviation during the Tribulation Transcendence, but they would not want to self-destruct. Otherwise, no one would survive if they self-destructed their Nascent Soul. Li Qingshan's Demon Infant did not self-destruct because it wanted to kill him.
That made sense. Cultivators who could cultivate to this stage could basically achieve immortality. How could they have such a demonic barrier? At most, they would be disturbed by demonic thoughts. Although it was very dangerous, it was not to the point of certain death.
And he clearly had extremely high talent and extraordinary bloodline. He might even live longer than her, but his greatest demonic barrier was to want to self-destruct. Wasn't this extremely laughable and tragic!?
She finally understood why he had rushed forward without any regard for anything. The heavens had given him a fate of certain death!
And it was about a few decades. How short a time was that for cultivators like them!? If she had encountered such a ridiculous matter, she would probably be filled with worry and bear an extremely heavy burden.
When that wild laughter entered her ears, it made her feel a deep sense of sorrow. As the saying goes, "the heavens make fools of men, and heroes meet their end."
She could not help but look up. Sunlight shone in from above, covering her in a hazy halo.
In the Hundred Herb Garden, a man and a woman, one sad and one happy.
Although the sorrow and joy of humans could not be interlinked, they could still resonate.
