“By the way, Grand Elder, this is a letter sent from the Medical King Valley.” Yan Botao remembered the letter that had been delivered from the Medical King Valley. Previously, Li Changqing was in seclusion, so he hadn’t been in a hurry to give it to him.
Li Changqing took the letter, and upon seeing the cover, he knew it was from Mu Qingge. Sitting on the stone bench, he opened the letter. Looking at the several pages filled with words, Li Changqing couldn’t help but chuckle. What on earth had Mu Qingge written that it could be so lengthy?
He began reading from the start. The beginning was quite normal, mostly discussing business matters. The Medical King Valley rarely did business with trading companies, mainly because they felt it unnecessary as they were not short of money. Those who could do business with the Medical King Valley were usually major sects, and doing business with the Changqing Trading Company was a first.
It was quite exclusive. Moreover, the price offered by Mu Qingge gave Li Changqing a pleasant surprise. Originally, Li Changqing hadn’t planned to profit from the pills, as having the authorization from the Medical King Valley was already a remarkable achievement. This selling point alone was enough to attract customers to the Changqing Trading Company. According to Li Changqing’s original plan, as long as they didn’t lose money, even breaking even would be acceptable.
However, it seemed that Mu Qingge had left a certain profit margin for the Changqing Trading Company. As he continued reading, the letter mentioned the matter of the Ghost Resentment Curse.
“Ghost Vine Grass?” Li Changqing frowned when he read that this Ghost Vine Grass grew deep in the Cloud Wilderness.
The Cloud Wilderness was a forbidden area for humans. Few who entered the Cloud Wilderness could come out alive, because if your human identity was discovered there, it would be like a Ghost Cultivator appearing in the human world, and you would be hunted down by all the Ghost Clan.
At that time, you would truly be surrounded by enemies. If you wanted to obtain the Ghost Vine Grass, you would have to use some unconventional methods.
Li Changqing believed that the Medical King Valley would definitely find a way to obtain the Ghost Vine Grass. After all, although the strength of the Medical King Valley was not strong, their ability was definitely not weak.
Continuing to read, Li Changqing saw the terrifying thing that Mu Qingge mentioned in the letter.
This matter left Li Changqing stunned. She had seen a child when she was young, and when she grew up, she saw the same child again?
How was that possible? Although the Cangyuan Realm had the Ghost Clan, it wouldn’t really have any ghostly incidents, would it?
How could a person remain unchanged for decades? Even in a mysterious world like the Cangyuan Realm, it was an incredible thing. Everyone wanted to live forever, to be immortal, but since ancient times, who could resist the erosion of time?
A powerful martial artist could live up to two hundred years, which was already considered very long-lived. However, when he saw the child mentioned in Mu Qingge’s letter, Li Changqing suddenly thought of something.
That was when he and Mu Qingge and others entered that secret realm, and he inadvertently saw something that looked like a river of time.
Li Changqing was sure that it was not an illusion, but something he had truly seen. He could clearly see a child standing on that river of time.
The child was also looking down at him. That incident had always puzzled Li Changqing, because he had never encountered such a thing again. It was only when Mu Qingge mentioned it that he remembered it.
However, Li Changqing didn’t know if these two incidents were related. Continuing to read, he saw Yin Changli practicing the sword diligently, and hearing Mu Qingge’s complaints, Li Changqing couldn’t help but laugh.
Yin Changli was a cute little guy, with a Xuanmu body, yet he was obsessed with practicing the sword.
“Yin Changli…” Li Changqing blinked, “This surname, could it also have some connection with the royal family of the North Cold Country?” After finishing the letter, Li Changqing took out a pen and paper to reply to Mu Qingge.
First, he expressed his gratitude for Mu Qingge’s help. Then he stated that he would also keep an eye out for the Ghost Vine Grass.
In addition, regarding the child that Mu Qingge saw, he advised her to be careful and try to suppress her curiosity, so as not to bring unnecessary trouble to herself.
Moreover, Li Changqing also told Mu Qingge some simple information he had recently obtained about the Longevity Sect, especially telling her that Yin Changli was on the Longevity Sect’s bounty list, and asked her to pay attention to Yin Changli’s safety.
After writing this letter, Li Changqing felt that he should also reply to a letter from Li Hengsheng. After all, he hadn’t replied to the letter that Li Hengsheng had written before.
But how should he write this reply? After pondering for an afternoon, he realized that Li Hengsheng was obviously very suspicious, always suspecting that the real Li Changqing had been possessed by someone else.
Every time he thought about this issue, Li Changqing felt a headache. In fact, he preferred children who were a bit naive. Heaven had finally given him a filial son, but why did he have to make his son so smart?
Wasn’t this just adding trouble for himself? It would be enough if the child knew to eat when he was hungry, go to the toilet when he needed to, and run home when it rained.As a result, he now had to engage in a battle of wits and courage with his son, just like the Smith father and son.
In the end, Li Changqing summoned Yan Botao and asked him to procure a second-grade Realm-Breaking Pill for him.
Third-grade pills were hard to find, but second-grade Realm-Breaking Pills were not rare. Yan Botao directly had the Changqing Trading Company acquire one, and then quickly had it delivered by the Cangyuan Escort Agency.
As per usual, Li Changqing put some silver tickets into his heart, but not too many, just a hundred thousand taels.
He then sent a letter to Dao Mountain Ancient Land. After finishing his busy work, Li Changqing had someone heat up some water for him to take a comfortable bath.
Three days later at Dao Mountain Ancient Land, Xue Qianbai received a package delivered by a disciple. Seeing that the package was sent from Changting Town, Xue Qianbai had a rough idea of what it might be.
However, Xue Qianbai muttered to himself, “Shouldn’t such an important item as the Acceptance of Rings be delivered in person?” He opened a small box inside, and a very beautiful ring appeared before Xue Qianbai.
The ring was ink-colored all over, with a very floating color, and at the front of the ring, there was even a snowflake carving.
Seeing this snowflake, Xue Qianbai’s eyes lit up. Such a delicate thing as a snowflake, Li Changqing had actually carved it out completely, and even carved it so lifelike, this skill was really not something ordinary people could achieve.
Putting the ring on his finger, Xue Qianbai took a deep breath. He didn’t have much desire for most things, but he had always wanted an Acceptance of Rings.
Unfortunately, the Acceptance of Rings was too rare in the Cangyuan Realm. He didn’t expect Li Changqing to be able to make one.
So he shamelessly asked for one. As his Divine Soul merged into the Acceptance of Rings, Xue Qianbai’s originally calm face suddenly became exciting.
Looking at the spacious space inside the Acceptance of Rings, Xue Qianbai almost doubted he was dreaming. The space of this Acceptance of Rings was a full thirty cubic meters!
Xue Qianbai had heard that the largest space in the Cangyuan Realm was only nineteen cubic meters, which was already very outrageous, but the one Li Changqing gave him was even bigger!
Xue Qianbai unconsciously swallowed, if this thing was thrown out, the whole Cangyuan Realm would probably boil.
“Does this guy not know what a big Acceptance of Rings means?” Xue Qianbai guessed it might be the case, because he had previously found that Xue Qianbai knew nothing about many things in the Cangyuan Realm.
If Li Changqing didn’t know how big the space of the Acceptance of Rings in the Cangyuan Realm was, and rashly told others about the space capacity of his Acceptance of Rings, he might be in big trouble!
Thinking of this, Xue Qianbai couldn’t stay any longer, he whistled, and the snow sculpture flew down. Xue Qianbai stepped on the snow sculpture and flew towards the outside of Dao Mountain Ancient Land.
He wanted to go to Changting Town in person to remind Li Changqing.
“What a worry!” Xue Qianbai said unhappily. Just as Xue Qianbai flew out of Dao Mountain Ancient Land, Xu Muhai happened to return from outside.
Xu Muhai looked up and saw Xue Qianbai rushing out, he was also somewhat surprised, what was the hurry?
After a trip to Tianhai City, Xu Muhai paid a huge price to get a lot of information about the Longevity Sect from Tianhai City.
At the same time, Xu Muhai also learned that in order to lift his Ghost Resentment curse, he needed to refine a certain pill from Medical King Valley. This pill was not difficult to refine, but one of the herbs needed, called Ghost Vine Grass, could only be found deep in Yunhuang, and was not available in the entire human realm.
However, Xu Muhai also put up a reward in Tianhai City, offering a reward of fifty thousand merit points to anyone who could find Ghost Vine Grass!
This was almost all of Xu Muhai’s wealth. But for his life, it would be worth it if he could find Ghost Vine Grass.
Back on Mu Haifeng, Xu Muhai got an update on recent events, and then saw something that Li Changqing had sent him to pass on to Li Hengsheng.
“What is it?” Seeing a box, Xu Muhai shook it slightly, hearing the sound inside, Xu Muhai guessed it should be another wood carving.
“Another treasure for his son.” Xu Muhai was so envious that his eyes turned red, why didn’t he have such a good father?
If the talent is not enough, make up for it with treasures! Li Hengsheng’s talent might not be good, but he was fed by such a good father!
The small tripod that Xu Muhai had given him before had recently allowed Xu Muhai to comprehend a new set of Martial Arts, and Xu Muhai also felt that his cultivation was not far from breaking through!
Given some more time, he could also step into the realm of Innate Perfection and become a Grandmaster.
Before he left, he had reported the name he had given to Li Hengsheng, allowing him to participate in the Ghost Devil trial. However, Xu Muhai was not sure whether Li Hengsheng had broken through to the Postnatal Realm.
So Xu Muhai went straight to Qingyu Mountain. He also brought the treasure for Li Hengsheng. Qingyu Mountain was very calm, everyone was working in an orderly manner, the small courtyard was elegant, and it was spotless.”Master, you’ve arrived.” Xu Kui saw Xu Muhai coming and hurriedly came up to greet him respectfully.
“Where is Hengsheng?” Xu Muhai asked.
“Young Master has not yet come out of seclusion.” Xu Kui quickly replied. Li Hengsheng had gone into seclusion to break through, but after so many days, there was still no movement, which seemed a bit strange.
Normally, it would only take a day for a person to break through from the ninth level of the Transcendence Realm to the Postnatal Realm. However, Li Hengsheng had been breaking through for half a month and still hadn’t come out.
“Boom!” Just then, a loud noise accompanied by a wave of energy swept over. Xu Kui and Xu Muhai quickly turned their gaze in that direction. The wave of energy made their clothes flutter.
A strong force of internal energy erupted, and Xu Muhai and Xu Kui felt as if a ferocious beast had awakened in that direction!
“Has the Young Master broken through?” Xu Kui was somewhat shocked. Would there be such a big commotion when breaking through from the ninth level of the Transcendence Realm to the Postnatal Realm?
Xu Muhai squinted his eyes. The “Zhao Mountain Gazing at Immortals” that Li Hengsheng practiced was really not simple.
With such a physique, they could feel the terrifying internal energy contained within him even from such a distance. No wonder it took so long to break through.
Previously, the power of Qi and blood in Li Hengsheng’s body was astonishingly strong. According to Xu Muhai’s thoughts, it should be as difficult as climbing to the sky for Li Hengsheng to break through to the Postnatal Realm. He originally came to see if Li Hengsheng was having difficulty breaking through, and he would try to help. Unexpectedly, Li Hengsheng had really broken through the shackles.
Before long, Xu Muhai and Xu Kui saw Li Hengsheng walking from a distance. Even from afar, they could feel the explosive power contained in Li Hengsheng’s body.
Compared to before, it had risen more than one level! His physique was comparable to a Spirit Beast. The light of the sun and the moon surrounded him, as if he possessed a power that could twist heaven and earth.
