Zhao Chuanlong remained calm and collected as he continued to drink with Xiong Chengde and the others. After three rounds of drinking, he pretended to be very drunk and left the Xiong family's mansion.
Li Wuyou saw all of this and the smile on his face grew wider and wider.
As Zhao Chuanlong left, Li Wuyou gradually withdrew his Spiritual Energy.
Peace gradually returned between heaven and earth.
The faint wind seemed to moisten things silently and gradually drifted away along with the bamboo forest.
Rustle!
The branches and leaves in the bamboo forest swayed slightly and continued to make rustling sounds. However, this sound was getting weaker and weaker, and then gradually faded away until it disappeared.
When Li Wuyou left, Zhao Chuanlong also sobered up. His eyes flashed with an indescribable cold light and some unconcealable anger.
That kind of anger made him look like a lion that was about to explode in anger.
He couldn't wait to kill Xiong Chengde and destroy the Xiong family.
He was so loyal and devoted, but he was used as a dog that could be replaced at any time. Moreover, he was going to deal with him now?
And it was Xiong Chengde's plan?
He was so angry that he couldn't describe it.
"Xiong Chengde, you were heartless first. Don't blame me for being unjust!"
"This time, I'll let you die without a burial place."
Zhao Chuanlong said silently in his heart. Then, he clenched his fists so hard that the veins on his hands were exposed and the joints of his bones collided with each other, making a violent creaking sound.
…
The night was dark.
Li Wuyou stood on a tall building in Taiyuan City.
His hands were behind his back. The wind blew past him and his clothes fluttered in the wind.
He looked at the scattered lights in the city and listened to the constant noise. His expression was indifferent and calm.
Morton and Zhao Chuanlong had been implanted with inner demons on the grassland. They both had indescribable anger and hatred towards Xiong Chengde.
Then, he didn't need to intervene in everything that happened next.
He just needed to wait and see.
Next, at the last moment, all he needed to do was to lead the people of the Eastern Palace Guards to stand out.
"There's still some time before the Xiong Clan's wedding. I should cultivate well during this time. It's time to refine the Nether Tiger's body."
Li Wuyou smiled faintly and then jumped down.
His skinny body turned into a black shadow and disappeared into the endless night.
It was as if he couldn't see anything at all.
Li Wuyou returned to the Eastern Military Depot's outpost in Taiyuan City. However, he did not make a public appearance.
His current identity was rather special. If he revealed too much, it would easily arouse Xiong Chengde's suspicion and nervousness. Therefore, he had been keeping a low profile.
He only met the Qianhu of the East Faction who was in charge of this place. Then, he hid in the mansion behind and never appeared again.
It was a quiet house.
It was a low-key and not very spacious courtyard. There were some bamboo forests and flowers in the courtyard. It looked a lot better than ordinary courtyards, but compared to Xiong Chengde's backyard, it was a world of difference.
This place was like a slum.
Of course, Li Wuyou did not care about this. His gaze was calm. Accompanied by the Qianhu, he entered the house. Then, without saying anything, he asked the Qianhu to leave.
The light in the house was very dim. Li Wuyou sat down cross-legged.
He closed his eyes slightly and spread his Spiritual Power in all directions. The faint power was like a whistling wind in the air. Then, it gradually covered the entire courtyard.
It even covered the area outside the courtyard.
He saw the conscripts belonging to the Eastern Military Depot. They were strictly guarding the surroundings, not allowing anyone to come close. He also saw the conscripts coming in and out.
They were in charge of scouting for information.
Then, he saw some strange people outside the mansion. They were hiding in various footholds and were carefully watching this place. They looked very casual, but their eyes were fixed on every movement here.
These people had some aura on them. They were all experts of the Jianghu.
Of course, in the eyes of ordinary people, they were experts of the Jianghu.
They were probably in the Xiantian Realm.
In front of Li Wuyou, these experts were trash. No, they were a group of trash.
Li Wuyou's Spiritual Power slowly scanned these people. He had a rough understanding of them. These people were probably sent by Xiong Chengde to watch the Eastern Military Depot.
The people of the Eastern Military Depot came to Taiyuan City. With the current relationship between the two, it was impossible for him not to be on guard.
It was normal for them to come and watch.
However, Li Wuyou was on guard against Xiong Chengde. Therefore, he did not send many people, less than a hundred. These people were purely to scout for information.
The main force was behind.
These hundred people would not make Xiong Chengde too sensitive. In addition, the latter was now preparing for the marriage between Xiong Dai and the grassland. Therefore, he should not be targeting this place.
Therefore, he only sent people to keep an eye on it.
As long as there was no movement here, they would not attack.
This could temporarily maintain the balance.
"I'm waiting to see you make a fool of yourself."
Li Wuyou looked at all the people who were guarding this place. A smile appeared on his face. Then, he withdrew his Spiritual Power.
He did not have time to waste on these people.
All of his Spiritual Souls had been completely retracted, and they were confined to this small courtyard.
This was Li Wuyou's way of protecting himself.
If someone broke in, he could quickly discover it and withdraw from this state of cultivation. It would not cause any evil waves. At the same time, he would not accidentally hurt the people of the Eastern Military Depot.
When the power of his Spiritual Power enveloped the surroundings, Li Wuyou took two deep breaths and calmed his emotions.
Complete silence.
Then, he took out the corpse of the Nether Tiger from the Space Dharma Artifact.
The corpse of the gigantic creature lay in front of them, almost filling up the entire room. On the black corpse, there were some simple flames left.
But it did not affect anything.
Li Wuyou opened his right palm slightly and placed it on the corpse. A faint flame lingered on his palm, and a faint halo suddenly rose.
Flames curled up, and the surrounding air was filled with an exceptionally scorching feeling.
This was Li Wuyou's Bloodline Flame. It was used to burn and refine the Nether Tiger's body.
Whoosh!
The flame gradually spread out and covered the entire body of the Nether Tiger. It looked a little bloody and strange.
The flesh of the Nether Tiger's corpse also began to change slightly.
The fur slowly weakened and dimmed. Soon after, it disappeared at a speed that was visible to the naked eye. Soon, some dark red spots appeared on the corpse.
These were the flesh that was exposed after the fur was burned.
The skin and flesh also began to show faint signs of wiggling under the burning flames. After this wiggling, the skin and fur gradually trembled, and some black liquid seeped out from within.
This liquid was the energy essence of the Nether Tiger's body.
Under normal circumstances, it would only take about an hour to refine a physical body.
However, at this moment, the refinement of the Nether Tiger was clearly going to take a shorter time.
The main reason was that the Nether Tiger originally cultivated the Spirit. Its physical body was not very strong compared to other Spirit Beasts. In fact, it was very weak.
Soon, a large part of it was burned by Li Wuyou's Bloodline Flame. The energy essence of the Nether Tiger's body also gathered into a ball of light the size of a fist.
The black ball of light floated in front of Li Wuyou. Then, it swayed slightly and emitted some heat.
There was also a strange halo, which seemed to be red, circulating within it.
Vaguely, Li Wuyou could feel some light and shadows lingering around it, as well as the roar of ferocious beasts.
But this did not stop Li Wuyou from continuing, nor did it affect his mood. He was still as calm as a statue, controlling his Bloodline Flame to burn the Nether Tiger's body.
Time passed slowly.
The night gradually deepened.
Countless stars appeared in the sky, and the whole world gradually quieted down. The noise in Sourcepeak City also slowly dissipated.
Even some of the spies who were keeping an eye on the Eastern Faction Guards outside began to doze off.
At this moment, Li Wuyou finally finished refining the Nether Tiger's body. With a loud bang, the last bone was completely shattered.
Then, under the burning of the Bloodline Flame, it completely turned into powder and disappeared.
A drop of Bloodline Energy also floated up and landed in Li Wuyou's palm.
At this moment.
The ball of light in Li Wuyou's palm had become much bigger, but its shape was still the same as before.
As the last drop of energy poured in, the ball of light wriggled slightly. Then, the halo on top of it suddenly lingered, and the illusion of the Nether Tiger appeared.
It was about the size of a palm, and its eyes flashed with indescribable eeriness and even terror. It opened its mouth, wanting to roar.
Pa!
Li Wuyou's palm only clenched slightly, and then, the illusion that wanted to roar was directly crushed and completely shattered.
It turned into a puff of smoke and disappeared without a trace.
This thing was the last remnant of the Nether Tiger's consciousness, and it had been completely wiped out by Li Wuyou.
The ball of light in his hand had also completely lost its remnant consciousness and turned into pure energy.
"After absorbing and refining, I can reach the fifth stage of the Vajra Realm."
"There's still a long way to go before I reach the eighteenth stage of the Vajra Realm."
Li Wuyou looked at the ball of light in his hand and sighed slightly. Over the years, from the Acquired Realm to the Innate Realm, from the Innate Realm to the Master Realm, and from the Master Realm to the Vajra Realm, his cultivation speed had always been very fast.
Now that he had reached the Vajra Realm, it was a little slow.
It made him feel a little anxious.
However, Li Wuyou also knew that this kind of slow speed wasn't really slow. It was only compared to his previous cultivation speed. If compared to the cultivation speed of a true Vajra Realm expert, his cultivation speed was still quite fast.
It was equivalent to flying.
After all, many people were unable to break through the first stage of the Vajra Realm in their entire lives.
Crossing the threshold of the Vajra Realm was the end.
Even if there were some old monsters in Shaolin's Endless Bitter Land, they also spent countless years and countless resources to slowly crawl forward like a snail.
Li Wuyou's cultivation speed had already surpassed everyone, including everyone he knew.
This was enough.
"Phew!"
Many thoughts flashed through his mind. Li Wuyou took a deep breath, then opened his mouth and swallowed the ball of light.
Boom!
The rich energy essence of the physical body entered his body, and Li Wuyou instantly felt a scorching power. It quickly entered his chest and abdomen, then spread out in all directions.
Almost in an instant, all the energy filled his body, and then the energy showed signs of spreading in all directions.
This energy was too strong, and even with Li Wuyou's fourth-stage Vajra Realm physical body, he could not absorb it all in a short time.
"Seal it!"
If it were any other time, Li Wuyou would naturally not care about the energy that was spreading out, even if it caused damage. However, he could not do so now.
If it caused too much of a disturbance, the spies of the Xiong Family who were watching outside would definitely find clues. If it aroused Xiong Chengde's suspicion or fear, it would very likely cause trouble.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Li Wuyou would never create any disturbance.
Phew!
As a low muffled sound came from his throat, the Spiritual Energy around his body trembled slightly. Then, it was as if a gust of invisible wind blew from all directions.
In an instant, all the energy fluctuations were covered and forcibly suppressed within three inches of Li Wuyou's body.
It did not cause the slightest spread.
In fact, he couldn't even detect anything in the room.
"Phew!"
When all the fluctuations finally calmed down and were completely suppressed, everything in the surroundings returned to normal. Li Wuyou took a deep breath and began to operate the Vajra Eighteen Beasts Forms cultivation method.
He began to slowly refine the energy essence that belonged to the Nether Tiger.
Following this refinement, the aura on his body, as well as the berserk deja vu, also gradually increased.
Even on the surface of his muscles, a faint halo began to circulate. Under the muscles, the veins were bulging, and his skin was constantly wriggling.
It looked like something was climbing up the wall.
The aura was extraordinary.
