In the cultivation room.
Lin Xuan sat cross-legged with his eyes closed. He silently used the Taiyi Heart Sutra and breathed in the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth. The Yuan Qi formed a cycle in his body and gradually turned into Taiyi True Yuan and returned to his Yuan Mansion.
After nearly four months of cultivation, his Yuan Qi cultivation had increased from nothing to the late stage of the True Element Boundary. He was only a hair's breadth away from the next realm. This kind of cultivation speed could not be described as slow.
Unfortunately, his Yuan Qi cultivation started too late and would not be of much use in the upcoming battles.
However, Lin Xuan was not in a hurry.
He had completely integrated the Taiyi Heaven Lord's comprehension of the Path of Chaos. There was almost no bottleneck in the cultivation of the Taiyi Truth. His cultivation speed was much faster than the Demon Lord's Golden Body. Perhaps it would not be long before his Yuan Qi cultivation caught up with the Demon Lord's Golden Body.
As a large amount of Yuan Qi entered his body, Lin Xuan's aura fluctuated. It seemed to have reached a critical point.
At a certain moment, his body suddenly shook, and he stopped absorbing the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth. His aura began to rise steadily.
After a while, his aura stabilized. He had broken through the bottleneck and entered the Peak of the True Energy Realm.
"Phew … I've finally reached the Peak. The next step is to condense the Primordial Core."
Lin Xuan opened his eyes. There was a flash of joy in his eyes.
He slowly raised his right hand. A black round hammer the size of a human head appeared in his palm. A chaotic and destructive aura spread throughout the cultivation room, causing the space to stagnate.
This small hammer was the Battle Soul cultivated by the Taiyi Truth. It was called the Hallowed Sky Demon Hammer.
The current Hallowed Sky Demon Hammer's power was very limited. However, once it was fully cultivated, it would have the power to destroy everything, disrupt the Five Elements, disintegrate the Eight Elements, and unify Tai Yuan.
Lin Xuan's eyes locked on to a human-shaped iron target ten meters away. He flipped his palm and pushed the Hallowed Sky Demon Hammer out.
Whoosh!
The Hallowed Sky Demon Hammer pierced through the air and hit the iron target's chest with a bang.
The iron target made of tempered steel instantly shattered into pieces and exploded, turning into pieces of iron of various sizes that scattered on the ground.
These pieces of iron were no longer pure iron. Some of them were emitting sparks, some were surrounded by lightning, and some were covered with ice …
Their attributes had become a complete mess, and it was extremely chaotic.
"The Path of Chaos is indeed powerful! I'm afraid that even a God Astral Realm martial artist would suffer a great loss if he was caught off guard. "
Lin Xuan was very happy.
The Dao of Chaos was a branch of the Dao of Chaos. It was ranked at the top of the myriad of Daos. At the same level, it was naturally stronger than ordinary Daos.
Lin Xuan practiced the method of using the Devil Hammer for a while, adapting to his new realm. Then, he put away the Devil Hammer Fighting Soul, opened the seal, and walked out of the cultivation room.
In the living room, Li Mojun had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing Lin Xuan appear, Li Mojun coldly glanced at him and said, "I thought you were going to give up."
"Hehe. I didn't expect you to joke. "Lin Xuan smiled.
Li Mojun unhappily snorted and placed a Rank Four Spirit Talisman on the table. "This is a Rank Four Illusion Talisman. I will explain the rules and precautions for entering the forbidden area to you. After that, you will transform into my appearance and go to the Li family's ancestral hall to gather with the clan."
"Hmm?" Lin Xuan was slightly taken aback and immediately shook his head in amusement.
"What do you mean?" Li Mojun frowned.
Lin Xuan smiled. "Miss Mojun, can you not be so naive? You want to fool everyone in the Li Family with a mere Level Four Illusion Talisman? Isn't this a little too unreliable? "
Li Mojun looked troubled. "I know it's a little risky, but this is the only way I can think of."
Lin Xuan said, "I have an idea. I can hide in a spatial treasure and you can bring me in."
Li Mojun's eyes lit up. After thinking for a while, she nodded. "Alright, this method is safer, but … forget it, let's do it this way!"
After the two finished discussing, Lin Xuan entered the Illusory Demon Orb, leaving behind a pearl the size of a pigeon's egg outside.
Li Mojun picked up the pearl and looked at it curiously before stuffing it into her clothes.
But after taking a few steps, she suddenly realized something was wrong. Her face turned red and she quickly took the pearl out of her clothes. After thinking for a while, she stuffed the pearl back into her sleeve.
Lin Xuan was secretly amused by the girl's actions.
However, he was secretly on guard. He was currently in the Illusory Demon Orb. If this girl lost her mind and gave the Illusory Demon Orb to the Li Family's martial experts, it would be troublesome.
Before dawn, the Li Residence was already bustling with activity. The Li Family's direct descendants gathered in the ancestral hall courtyard to burn incense and worship their ancestors.
The women of the Li Family were not qualified to enter the ancestral hall courtyard, so Li Mojun could only wait outside.
To Lin Xuan's surprise, Li Mojun was the only woman of the Li Family who came. Standing alone outside the ancestral hall courtyard, she was very conspicuous.
Since he was bored, Lin Xuan couldn't help but ask, "Why are you the only woman? As far as I know, there are no less than thirty women of the Li Family's direct descendants, right?"
Li Mojun looked around and whispered, "Our Li Family doesn't allow women to enter the forbidden area. The reason I am allowed to enter is because we have no other choice.
There are many fire-type beasts in the forbidden grounds, which are extremely dangerous for the Li family's disciples who enter. I am the strongest in the Li family's younger generation. The main reason I am allowed to join is to protect the others. Receiving the inheritance is secondary. "
"Oh?" Lin Xuan was a little surprised, "If that's the case, why did you ask me to go in your place? Wouldn't you be exposed easily?"
"That's my business, you don't have to worry about it," Li Mojun said coldly.
Lin Xuan smiled with a thoughtful look on his face.
It was no wonder that Li Mojun was unwilling. If he really went in place of Li Mojun, he was afraid that Li Mojun would be severely punished by the family afterwards. This little girl was really going all out in order to escape the marriage.
Two hours later, the Li Family's ancestral worship ended. The unrelated people dispersed, leaving behind twelve Li Family youths and Li Mojun. A total of thirteen people followed Li Xuan into an underground passage in the ancestral hall.
These thirteen people were between fifteen and twenty years old, and most of them were in the True Energy Realm. Li Mohan wasn't among them.
Other than Li Mojun, there were two other God Astral Realm beginners.
Following the slanted stairs, the group went down in silence. There was a powerful restriction set up in the passage, enough to stop Heaven Change Realm elites.
At the end of the passage, there was a heavily guarded room with a teleportation array. There were two Heaven Change Realm late-stage elites sitting cross-legged in the corner of the room.
Seeing the arrival of the group, the two elites immediately opened their eyes and scanned the group with eagle-like eyes.
One of them even took out a transparent mirror and stuck it in front of his eyes. It should be a kind of artifact to break through illusions, probably to prevent impersonators from sneaking in.
Lin Xuan was in the Illusory Demon Orb, quietly looking outside. At this moment, he couldn't help but feel a lingering fear. If he had only used a Level Four Talisman to change his appearance, he might have been discovered.
At this moment, even if he was in the Illusory Demon Orb, he was still a little worried about being discovered.
But fortunately, that person didn't discover the Illusory Demon Orb. After the inspection, one of the elites took out a piece of supreme-grade vitality stone and inserted it into the teleportation array. The teleportation array immediately lit up with a purple light, indicating that it was ready to be used.
Li Xuan turned to look at the Li Family disciples behind him and said in a deep voice, "You are all clear about the rules. There are ferocious beasts everywhere, and it is very dangerous. This is also a test set by the ancestors. Whether you can reach the bronze man will depend on your own luck.
Of course, if you can't do it, you can leave early. Even if our Li Family disciples can't walk the path of craftsmanship, we have other options. "
"Patriarch, don't worry. We will work hard and strive for everyone to get the inheritance so that the family's craftsmanship can flourish."
A Li Family youth with an extraordinary aura said loudly.
This youth's name was Li Zhaojing, and he was at the peak of God Astral Realm. His strength was second only to Li Mojun.
He was also the most promising male in the younger generation of the Li Family. He was now an intermediate craftsman, and his talent in craftsmanship was above Li Mojun's. He was the leader of the Li Family disciples.
"That's right! This time, I will definitely see the bronze man! "
"If I don't get the inheritance, I won't retreat!"
After Li Zhaojing finished speaking, the rest of the disciples agreed. They seemed to have made up their minds to walk to the end and get the inheritance of the family's craftsmanship.
However, there were also a few guys with weaker cultivation who avoided eye contact, revealing a look of fear and uneasiness.
Li Xuan nodded in satisfaction and ordered, "Alright, you can all go now!"
Everyone cupped their hands and stepped into the teleportation array, disappearing from the room.
Seeing that all the youths had disappeared, Li Xuan sighed softly, and a faint trace of worry flashed in his eyes.
An old guard in the corner shook his head and sighed, "Sigh, our Li Family is really getting worse with each generation. These few batches of youths still need to rely on the protection of a girl! After a hundred years, I'm afraid we won't have the face to see our ancestors! "
Another powerhouse sneered, "Mojun, this girl is not bad. Unfortunately, women have to marry eventually."
When Li Xuan heard the words of the two guards, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
The two of them seemed to be lamenting that the younger generation didn't live up to expectations, but they were actually criticizing him, the Patriarch, for not nurturing the younger generation well enough.
Regarding this, he had nothing to say. However, he secretly made up his mind to quickly recruit Ning Que into the family and set up a marriage agreement between him and Li Mojun. This way, not only could he keep Li Mojun in the Li Family, but he could also recruit a blacksmithing genius, killing two birds with one stone.
…
The moment the youths of the Li Family entered the teleportation array, five powerful powerhouses of the Keelung Sect appeared on the street outside the Li Residence. The one leading them was the Keelung Sect's Enforcer, Yin Bieli.
A martial artist respectfully said, "Enforcer Yin, according to our investigation, the guest of the Li Family named Ning Que is very suspicious!
Although his cultivation isn't high, his spiritual power is extremely strong. As such, his learning of spirit inscriptions is progressing at lightning speed. This clearly doesn't match his cultivation!
His usual behavior is also a little strange, and his actions are very low-key. He is obviously a blacksmithing genius, but he isn't flamboyant at all. This doesn't match the temperament of a young man.
Furthermore, the time he entered the city coincides with the time Lin Xuan appeared in Yuzhou.
Thus, this subordinate is seventy percent sure that this person is Lin Xuan in disguise! "
Yin Bieli's gaze was deep as he said indifferently, "It's better to kill the wrong person than to let the wrong person go! Get everyone ready. This Great One will personally enter the Li Family to meet him! If it is really Lin Xuan, he will most likely escape through the ground. You must guard the ground well! "
"This subordinate obeys!"
Everyone hurriedly complied.
Yin Bieli lightly snorted and led the two martial artists to the Li Residence's entrance.
