Li Gan sat cross-legged on the bed and used the Xuanyou Secret Tome to refine a spirit crystal soul. Other than the few broken bones on his body, they were quickly healing under the nourishment of the spirit energy. As long as there was enough spirit energy, Li Gan would be able to recover in the shortest amount of time. This was the most powerful part of the Xuanyou Secret Tome.
Thinking back to the fierce battle with Sun He, Li Gan still felt his heart skip a beat. The strength that Sun He had displayed was definitely one of a kind. This was especially true when he cast the Adamantine Protective Armor using the special-grade divine ability, the Adamantine Divine Art. Sun He looked like he was made of steel.
Every time Li Gan smashed into his opponent's body, it was no different from hitting steel. Every time they collided, a crack would appear on the bones in his hands. If it wasn't for the Xuanyou Secret Tome protecting his true essence and quickly repairing his body, Li Gan believed that his hands would be completely destroyed in ten punches at most.
The main reason why Sun He was invincible among the Ji Zhou's younger generation was because the Vajra Divine Art was truly terrifying.
If he could really obtain this body tempering technique and cultivate it, Li Gan believed that with his strong body, he could boldly try to devour demonic beasts and completely strengthen his body. This was his ultimate goal. A strong body was his final trump card.
After the spirit energy in his dantian circulated five times, Li Gan had completely refined the spirit crystal soul. He let out a long breath and slowly opened his eyes.
Under the dual effects of the spirit crystal soul and the Xuanyou Secret Tome, Li Gan's body had basically recovered. This made Li Gan very proud. It had to be known that Sun He's injuries were not lighter than Li Gan's. Even if he had the Vajra Divine Art to protect his body, he would have to lie in bed for seven to eight days. However, Li Gan only needed two hours to completely recover.
"Let's go. This young master will take you home and make you an exquisite birdcage." Li Gan casually picked up the little crow beside him, but quickly flung his hand away.
The little crow was thrown to the corner of the wall and lay there motionlessly.
Li Gan looked at his bloody right hand in shock. Why did it seem like this little thing was heavily injured when he moved it? How could this little thing injure him?
It had to be known that although Li Gan's body was not as abnormal as Sun He's, with the Xuanyin Secret Tome's body protection technique and a long period of body tempering, his body's hardness was not something a normal God cultivator could compare to.
"Wah … Wah …" The little crow fell to the ground, its curled up body trembling uncontrollably. Its intelligent little eyes flashed red, and although its low cry was not piercing to the ears, there was a special kind of pressure. Even Li Gan found it hard to believe.
If one were to take a closer look, they would see that the little crow's wings were flashing with streaks of black lightning from time to time, as if it was suffering great pain. Its body was expanding bit by bit, and it was only the size of a baby's fist at first, but in just an instant, it had doubled in size.
"Could it really be a demonic beast? Was it trying to get closer to him? Li Gan became more and more surprised, but more than that, he was pleasantly surprised. "If that's really the case, then I'll have to lend you a hand!"
He reached for the Baibao pouch.
"Eh!"
Only then did Li Gan realize that the jade bottle he used to store the Spirit Crystal Essences was placed at the head of his bed, and the bottle's stopper had been thrown to the side. It was originally filled to the brim with Spirit Crystal Essences. Those were Peak Class 3 demonic beasts that Li Gang and the Rainbow Fairies had jointly hunted in the Phoenix Ridge. These were all extremely rare and exquisite items. Originally, he had given three to Wu Yan, but he still had nineteen left, leaving him with only five.
"Where are the Spirit Crystal Essences?"
Li Gan's expression kept changing. These Spirit Crystal Essences were his guarantee for breaking through to the Late Earth God Stage.
"Could it be that they were eaten by you, little thing?" Li Gan smiled evilly as he looked at the little crow on the ground. His face was full of bitterness. It was not that he was unwilling to part with the Spirit Crystal Essences, but this little thing had actually swallowed fourteen of them in one go. One had to know, these fourteen pellets were equivalent to fourteen third-level pinnacle Mystical Beasts, yet this little guy had not died from the explosion of its body. With such a strong body at such a young age, who wouldn't say that this little crow was not a rare Pet Beast?
Li Gan's attention returned to the little crow. The little thing's body was curled up. Its jet-black feathers were filled with a black glow, and its tender little claws were forcefully protruding. Its eyes were squeezed and twisted, as if it was suffering from great pain. Finally … Crackle … A dense black electric net suddenly wrapped around the little crow's body. The little crow let out a soft moan and completely collapsed. The electric arcs disappeared and everything returned to normal.
Was it really him?
Li Gan tentatively touched the little thing a few times. Not only was there no electric shock, the little crow did not have any reaction at all. Li Gan carefully picked it up. He could clearly hear the little crow's heartbeat. Only then did he feel slightly relieved.
Was it really him who had swallowed so many Spirit Crystal Essences? Li Gan couldn't help but ask again.
If it was true, it was definitely a terrifying thing. One had to know that this little thing had swallowed fifteen Spirit Crystal Essences in a row, but it had only grown a little. One could imagine how much tolerance this little thing had.
Li Gan carefully checked for a long time, but did not find anything. The little crow was sleeping very soundly.
At this moment, a soft voice came from outside.
Who was it?
Li Gan thought in his heart. He placed the little crow in his arms and opened the door to leave the guest room.
A little boy was standing outside. Wu Yan and the Rainbow Fairies were asking him something.
"Big brother, may I ask if you are the Second Young Master Li, Li Gan?" The little boy was very sensible and politely greeted Li Gan.
Li Gan looked at Wu Yan strangely. "What's the matter with him?"
Wu Yan looked at the little boy warily and said, "Someone asked this little guy to bring a message. He said that we are in danger here and must leave immediately. It's best to look for him."
"Who is it?"
The little boy said, "It's a middle-aged man in his forties."
"Do you remember what he looks like?"
"That uncle is wearing black. I can't see him clearly at all."
"Where can we find that uncle?"
"The uncle told me that as long as I tell you the location, the Second Young Master will definitely find him."
"Then where is it?"
"He said it's a place called Wuli Castle."
"Wuli Castle?" Li Gan asked in surprise. Although Li Gan grew up in Ji Zhou, he had never heard of it before.
"It's a no-man's land. It has been abandoned for a long time. Only some homeless people would gather there."
"Could it be related to what happened today?" the Rainbow Fairies looked at Li Gan and asked.
Li Gan touched his forehead and looked at Wu Yan. Since she knew about this place, she might be able to think of something.
Wu Yan frowned and said, "What's the danger he mentioned? Is it Sun Peng, that old thief, or Lao Nuoshan? I think it's definitely not Sun He. After all, that kid is very conceited and he's quite an upright person. "
"I'm wondering who would give us the information and what's their purpose." the Rainbow Fairies were more cautious.
Li Gan carried his battle sword and smiled, "No matter what his purpose is or who he is, let's go and take a look."
The little boy laughed happily, "Second Young Master Li, that person said that you will give me money, right?"
"Didn't he give you money?"
"He said that the Second Young Master Li will give me money." The little boy shrunk his neck timidly, "He also said that the Second Young Master Li is a very generous person."
"Haha, I might really be a generous person. How much do you want?"
The little boy stretched out a finger.
"One crystal coin?"
"No, I only want one yuan. It's enough to buy a grain gourd." the little boy said shyly.
"Haha, here, take it!" Li Gan took out a handful of crystal coins. There were more than thirty of them and handed them to the little boy.
"So much?" the little boy became excited, "I only want one yuan."
"I hope these crystal coins will be of some help to you." Li Gan returned a smile and left the inn with Wu Yan and the Rainbow Fairies.
After leaving the inn, the three of them hid in a secluded corner for a while. After making sure that no one was following them, they followed Wu Yan and turned left and right. After walking for more than an hour, they finally arrived at an abandoned bungalow area.
"It's here!" Wu Yan pointed in that direction.
"Okay, let's find a place and wait for him." The three of them chose the most rundown bungalow and walked in.
At this time, it was already dusk. In the tall buildings in the distance, the lights had already been lit. Only this area seemed exceptionally quiet. The pale moonlight didn't bring any warmth.
"Why do I feel that this place is strange … … It's a kind of cold feeling … …" Wu Yan looked around vigilantly. His hands slowly clenched into fists. His hands had already turned green.
"Someone's here!"
At this time, the Rainbow Fairies alerted him.
Li Gan tightened his grip on the saber in his hand.
"Are you the Second Young Master Li, Li Gan?" An old voice came from a small courtyard not far away.
"I am. Why did you lead me here?"
"To talk about your life."
"My life?! Who wants to take my life? What's their goal? "
"Haha," the man laughed strangely, "Goal?! It's very simple. They want your life. "
"Who is it that wants my life?"
"We want your life!" A strong spiritual pressure came with the voice. The entire courtyard was suddenly filled with dust.
"Huh?" The three of them were shocked. They didn't expect to fall into a trap.
"Damn it, I didn't expect to fall into a trap!" Li Gan cursed in a low voice.
"You guys go first. I'll cover you!!" The Rainbow Fairies drew their swords and looked around vigilantly.
"We'll advance and retreat together. We came together, so we'll leave together." Li Gan quickly circulated the spiritual energy in his body. A colorless fire vortex condensed in the palm of his hand.
"You guys go first!" The Rainbow Fairies blocked in front of Li Gan.
"You want to leave?! None of you can leave! "
Whoosh whoosh!! Before the old voice could finish, countless figures flew towards the three of them in the cloud of dust.
