At the Li family's Martial Arts Practice Field.
"Young Master, last night's incident at the Fung Ching Pavilion has been thoroughly investigated. It was the Second Young Master who initiated the provocation. He was also the one who made the first move. He single-handedly defeated the two brothers of the Jiang family and even severely injured them." Butler Chen respectfully reported to Li Long, who was practicing the Nine Heavy Slashes.
Li Long slowly stopped. He wiped the sweat from his temples and said, "Could it be that the divine ability he used was also the Nine Heavy Slashes?"
"The Second Young Master did not use the Nine Heavy Slashes. It is said that it is also a divine ability of the Li family. It is a kind of divine ability of the fire attribute. The two brothers of the Jiang family were mainly at a disadvantage in this aspect."
Li Long silently muttered, "Could it be that our Li family has some kind of powerful divine ability of the fire attribute?"
Chen could not help but nod his head.
"Has the Second Eldest Child cultivated the Nine Heavy Slashes?" Li Long asked again.
"From the way he fought, the Second Young Master did not cultivate the Nine Heavy Slashes at all. According to the witnesses, the Second Young Master did not use any technique at all. He was purely attacking randomly. I think that even if the Second Young Master used a brilliant divine ability, our spies would not be able to see through it. After all, our Great Ancestor is a True God almighty. If he casually taught the Second Young Master a few moves, it would be something that low-level God cultivators like them would not have seen before. "
Li Long was silent for a while, then said expressionlessly, "Jiang Jin is a late-stage Earth God. Even with my current ability, it would take some effort to win. The Second Eldest Child could easily cripple Jiang Jin. It is definitely not luck, it must be …"
"Young Master …" Chen suddenly lowered his voice to the minimum, "The Second Young Master is already a threat to you. Yesterday, the guards of the Treasury secretly reported to me that the Second Young Master went to the Treasury after meeting the Old Master. Both the Old Master and Great Ancestor allowed it."
"Is that true?"
"It is definitely true."
"Then did you hear which floor he went to?" Li Long could no longer remain calm.
"Li Zhenjun took the Second Young Master there. As for which floor, no one dared to ask!"
Li Long was silent for a while, then said, "Where is the Second Young Master?"
"In his own room. The Old Master has already given the order for us to keep an eye on him. Without the Old Master's order, the Second Young Master is not allowed to go anywhere."
"Haha, that's good!" Li Long finally laughed.
"Young Master, should we do something to the Second Young Master's dishes?" Chen made a 'kill' gesture.
"It's not time yet. For now, observe his every move closely. If anything happens, immediately report to me."
"Yes, Young Master, don't worry."
…
At this time, Li Gang was in his room, taking out the three superpowers of the Li Clan — the Flying Heaven Slash, the Lava Technique, and the Violent Technique. These three Precious Grade superpowers and the Nine Slash were known as the Li Clan's signature superpowers. It was said that if one could combine the four superpowers, the explosive power would not be inferior to a Special-Grade superpower. This was also the foundation of the Li Clan's standing in the Northern Wilderness Region.
For cultivation, Li Gan did not need the help of any Heavenly Treasures. The Spirit Crystal Soul was his best supplement.
Li Gan took out the three Spirit Crystal Souls and placed them in front of him. Once again, he recited the three superpowers' cultivation methods in his heart and began to comprehend them.
This was also one of the main reasons why Li Gan requested to go into seclusion. During this period of time, he wanted to seriously comprehend the four mystiques. If he could cultivate 10% or 20% of them, it would be an important method to increase his strength. Moreover, the Xuanming Divine Fire in his body was still at the lowest level. It could not combine with the spiritual energy in his body at all.
Li Gan only hoped that during this period of seclusion, he could combine the Divine Fire and spiritual energy in his body. It would be best if he could control and release them freely.
The main advantage of the Flying Heaven Slash was that it could cause spiritual energy to descend from the sky and burst out in an instant. If it was combined with the Nine Slash, not only would it increase the speed, but it would also increase the lethality.
The Lava Technique used spiritual energy to communicate with the underground magma and turn it into an offensive weapon. As for the Violent Technique, it compressed spiritual energy and flames and instantly turned the spiritual energy into a pillar of fire to attack. If these four divine abilities were perfectly combined, then it would definitely have an earth-shattering destructive power.
Li Gan analyzed the pros and cons of the three superpowers seriously. In the end, he chose the Violent Technique to comprehend. The Flying Consecutive Slashes and the Lava Art required an enormous amount of energy. Even with his strength of the intermediate Earth God Realm, he would most likely use up all of his energy.
Comparatively speaking, the most suitable one for him to cultivate now was the Violent Technique.
Time passed day by day. Under the protection of the alliance, the Li family and the Jiang family finally reached an agreement. The tense atmosphere in Jizhou also slowly eased.
Ever since those things happened, Li Gan never showed his face in Jizhou again. The Li and Jiang families also intended to keep quiet. Now, almost no one mentioned what happened that night. It was as if it had never happened at all.
Jizhou regained its peace again. Everything seemed to have returned to its original track.
Three months later, a sudden change of events finally gathered in the Northern Wilderness Region of Jizhou!
The largest auction organization in the Nine Heaven World, the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower, had joined forces with the Liu State, Tong State, and the Target State to issue a bounty to the Ji State to capture a group of robbers called Cang Lang. The bounty reward was a set of special grade abilities, five sets of rare grade abilities, and one million crystal coins.
Once the news was out, the Northern Wilderness Region was in turmoil. Not to mention one million crystal coins, just the special grade superpowers would make everyone go crazy. And the one who issued the bounty, the Thousand Treasure Tower, must have spent an unprecedented amount of money.
An unprecedented manhunt quickly blew to Jizhou.
The Jeju Union naturally would not let go of this opportunity to make a fortune. They sent out a large number of elites to search. However, their real goal was not the Thousand Treasure Tower's reward, but the items in the hands of the Blue Wolf robbers. Anyone could imagine that the items in their hands were definitely far above the reward offered by the Thousand Treasure Tower.
After half a year of manhunt, someone finally locked onto this group of robbers. They saw the Blue Wolf robbers passing through Jizhou and heading towards the Northern Wilderness Region.
…
After nine years of closed-door cultivation, Li Gan trained hard almost day and night. Under the nourishment of a large number of spirit crystals, he finally condensed six fist-sized fireballs. After practicing again and again, the Explosive Art was basically at the initial level. He could already transform his spiritual energy into fireballs and control them around his body. With the guidance of his mind, he could attack.
The reason why Li Gan was able to condense six fireballs in nine months, other than the help of the spirit crystals, was mainly because of Li Shi Saint's experience and understanding of the Explosive Art. These in-depth recognition and analysis saved Li Gan a lot of trouble. Li Gan even suspected that this superpower was specially prepared by Li Shi Saint beforehand.
In addition, Li Gan had finally reached a tacit understanding with the Divine Fire in his body after nine months of closed-door cultivation. He seemed to have found a balance. Now, Li Gan could basically control the Xuanming Divine Fire in his body.
"Eh, Second Young Master, Master didn't let you come out."
The servant who had been guarding outside saw Li Gan suddenly walk out of his room with disheveled hair. He was very surprised, but he hurriedly bowed to him. The change in the servant's attitude was naturally attributed to the murder case nine months ago. If it was in the past, they would only treat Li Gan casually when they saw him. But now, no one dared to ignore the Second Young Master.
"I feel so aggrieved. Can't I come out?" Li Gan took two long breaths of the fresh morning air and said, "Go and invite Wu Yan and the Rainbow Fairies. If possible, call Li Shuyi as well."
"Second Young Master, ever since we returned from the Spirit Forging Village, Miss has been in closed-door cultivation. She hasn't come out yet."
"Then just call Wu Yan and the Rainbow Fairies."
"Yes, Second Young Master. I'll go right away."
Li Gan returned to his room and dressed himself up. He found the most handsome clothes, put them on, and went to the accounts room to 'borrow' some crystal coins.
"Why are you looking for us?" Wu Yan looked very sloppy. Her clothes were untidy, and her hair was disheveled. She was now at a crucial moment in her cultivation of the Thorny Entanglement Technique. She had been practicing it day and night for the past six months.
"Didn't your father not let you out? Why did you come out so casually? "Rainbow Fairies seemed to have returned to their cold and elegant self.
"I miss Sister Fairy. You don't let me out every day. It's so frustrating."
"Can't you say something more serious?" Rainbow Fairies rolled their eyes.
"Of course. Can you accompany me for a stroll?" Li Gan looked at Rainbow Fairies with ill intentions.
"Second Master Li, did you call us out just to accompany you for a stroll? You should know that I'm very busy. "Wu Yan rolled her eyes and got up to leave.
"I know that you're all cultivating. I'm not idle either. Now, I suddenly realized that I'm missing a decent weapon. I want to ask you for advice. If you want to buy anything, I can give it to you for free."
The two girls were stunned at the same time. They looked at each other and finally looked at Li Gan, "You mean we can spend your crystal coins?"
"Damn, I'm not that stingy! As long as I can afford it, you can spend as much as you want. "
"Let's go!"
The three of them avoided all the spies in the Li Residence and left through the back door, heading straight for the trading plaza in the north of Ji Zhou City.
This was a trading plaza, a relatively scoundrelly free plaza. However, everything was available here. As long as you could afford crystal coins, you could buy anything you wanted here, whether it was weapons, materials, pet beasts, or precious toys. Of course, there were also knockoffs here. That would be a test of your taste.
The trading plaza was crowded with people. It was the time when there were a lot of people. It was noisy and boisterous. Occasionally, there would be the deafening roars of monsters.
"Everyone, come and take a look. This is a peerless spirit flower. I don't need to say anything. Everyone knows that this is a treasure of heaven and earth. If ordinary people use it, they can extend their lifespan. If God cultivators use it, they can raise their cultivation." A bearded man held a strange flower that was as thick as a child's arm and shouted loudly.
"Eh?! It's really good stuff! "Li Gan stared at the strange flower in the man's hand and refused to leave.
"Little friend, have you taken a fancy to it?" The man looked at Li Gan and asked with a smile.
"Of course. How many crystal coins?"
"Four crystal coins. It's worth it."
"I think yours is worth forty crystal coins." Li Gan looked at the man with a smile that was not a smile.
"Forty crystal coins?" The man sucked in a breath of cold air. He was quite familiar with the strange flower in his hand called the Stem Spirit Flower. This thing was clearly a fake made by him, but the other party had offered a high price of forty crystal coins. "Little friend, are you here to cause trouble? Let me tell you, I, Zhao's Second Eldest Child, can be considered a person with a reputation in this area. If you want to cause trouble, you'd better choose a good target."
"Do I look like it? This young master's clothes are also worth ten crystal coins. "Li Gan tugged at his clothes.
"From the looks of it, you are indeed the son of a rich family. Alright, I won't ask you for more. Just give me five crystal coins." The man was rather honest and only asked for one more crystal coin.
"Alright!" Li Gan straightforwardly took out five crystal coins.
Zhao's Second Eldest Child happily weighed the crystal coins in his hand and walked away.
"Li Gan, you fool. Can't you see that this is a fake?" Wu Yan could not bear it anymore and reminded him.
"Yes, I know."
"You still bought it when you knew?"
