A leisurely life in the world of cultivation

Chapter 118 No More Flaws! (Bonus Chapter for Monthly Tickets!)
The wind stopped, and the sand settled.

The gentle glow of the stars shines upon the world once more.

Li Weizhou's expression was somewhat complicated; he was genuinely reluctant to part with the bloody eyes.

They overcame countless hardships and obstacles along the way, all thanks to his and Blood Eye's tireless efforts...

However, only in this way can he truly be considered invincible in the future.

If he truly ensures that the sea of ​​blood never dries up, then this new Lord of the Underworld will be immortal.

Even if someone had destroyed him before, even imprisoning his soul, and he hadn't managed to escape in time, he would still have perished.

Now, even though his body and soul have been destroyed, a part of his soul remains in his blood-red eye, allowing him to be resurrected.

This is another miraculous aspect of the Blood Eye; it can not only nourish the body's acupoints but also nourish and repair the soul...

It truly lives up to its reputation as a wondrous object of heaven and earth that existed since the beginning of time, rather than just a simple magical artifact.

It's fine to leave it here; it will be his biggest trump card in the future, allowing him to dominate both worlds.

Moreover, any evil aura that might have tainted him will completely disappear.

Blood Eye is so evil, and it swallows so much "filthy blood" every day, it's impossible for it not to be tainted by evil spirits. It's just that there are no masters in the mortal world who can see through souls.

It's hard to say what will happen once we reach the spirit world, but this worry has been resolved for now.

As for the phantom of the blood-red eye left in his mind, it can dissipate and reassemble on its own at any time, because the blood-red eye is a treasure that has recognized its master's soul. Even if it is placed here, it will not affect its essence and can still be used at any time.

It leaves a phantom image on the body, only for use as a teleportation anchor.

I just don't know if Xiao Jian and Shi Jing will be discovered in the future...

The thought had barely formed when the small sword and the stone mirror, which had been silent deep within his soul, each left a phantom image. These images then instantly flew out from between his brows and vanished without a trace, appearing in the sea of ​​blood near the blood eye, where they floated quietly...

"..."

Li Weizhou watched this scene in astonishment. From what he knew before, apart from the Blood Eye, other treasures with spirituality could not appear alone in this world, otherwise their spirituality would quickly dissipate and the treasure would become useless, like the little sword before.

but now……

Could it be that the area around the Blood Eye has become its own world, capable of isolating itself from the laws of this world in its final days?

Based on his experience reading novels, Hu Xiangba thought for a while, and then Li Weizhou shook his head, saying it was too early to explore these things now.

Looking at the sky, though reluctant, he drove back to the hotel.

However, her mood quickly improved.

Because from now on, there will truly be no more flaws.

It was premature to tell Zhao Jiugu that he was not afraid of firearms.

But now, he is truly no longer afraid.

Because they can be brought back to life!
The vehicle drove through the blood-red desert, and even under the moonlight, the fiery red surroundings were still clearly visible.

It's a bit scary, but this is the perfect place to land in the sea of ​​blood.

Although the Australian continent is roughly the same size as China, 95% of its land is uninhabited.

Of course, there are still some small towns scattered around these uninhabited areas.

But from now on, these towns will gradually lose all their vitality.

This is why Li Weizhou did not choose to place the Blood Eye in the desert or Gobi within China, nor did he choose to place it in Shan State, but instead chose to settle it here.

Because every drop of blood in the Blood Sea is highly poisonous, nothing will grow on the Blood Sea.

This continent has always been known as the "Cursed Land".

From today onwards, we can truly live up to our name.

And those 95 percent of uninhabited areas will gradually become truly uninhabited areas, where not even a single weed will grow.

The venomous snakes and monitor lizards that live there will gradually move to other habitats...

Furthermore, the ground will gradually turn red with blood.

If this happened anywhere else, the anomaly would have been detected immediately, and it wouldn't have been difficult to dig and search, find and destroy the sea of ​​blood.

The Simpson Desert, stretching like a giant red velvet carpet, became the perfect cover for the sea of ​​blood.

Once the sea of ​​blood, which is more than 1,000 meters deep, has expanded to cover 170,000 square kilometers, and then expands outwards, others will only see it as the expansion of the Simpson Desert.

Further down, even if someone were to explore further, the Blood Sea at that point would be beyond the reach of ordinary iron.

Any instrument that probes that depth will be instantly destroyed.

However, kind-hearted people need not worry about the Australian people and animals, because even if Li Weizhou expands the Blood Sea at a rate of one West Lake per year, it will still take 1.2 million years to conquer the entire Australian continent...

Of course, if negotiations with domestic partners go smoothly, the expansion will certainly not be limited to the speed of West Lake in the future.

Fast-growing pigs can complete the entire process from birth to slaughter in as little as five months.

Now, the Blood Sea not only needs blood, but also flesh and bones. After taking over Shan State, large-scale pig farms and slaughterhouses will be built, and the Blood Eyes will be sent away in one go... There will be no storage pressure.

Therefore, as long as there are enough funds and resources, it is not difficult to have ten or even a hundred West Lakes a year, let alone one West Lake a year.

At that time, endless corpses, chunks of flesh, and bones will float on the boundless underground sea of ​​blood... Hmm, that's the kind of place it is.

……

Li Weizhou didn't stay in Australia for long; he bought a ticket and flew back directly.

I wrote a line in the hotel guestbook: I saw the most beautiful sunset and experienced a terrible sandstorm. I am satisfied, and now all I want to do is go home.

The image of a romantic and artistic young man is vividly portrayed.

……

Within just two days, the news of Li Weizhou's departure and return to the mountain city spread to many interested people.

There were various speculations, most of which were unfavorable, but Zhao Jiugu still chose to trust him.

“Li Weizhou didn’t contact any suspicious people, and even the receptionist at the Mercure Hotel was Chinese. He just went to the desert, watched a sunset, and came back. I know there must be other reasons, but I don’t think we should give up this opportunity or do something to make him hostile.”

In a seemingly ordinary courtyard in Mentougou District of Beijing, twelve people were sitting in a very plain room. Zhao Jiugu was seated at the back, but he exuded a strong aura.

An elderly man with gray hair and glasses said calmly, "Old Zhao, have you considered what would happen if he really is that strong, and we help him unify the Shan Kingdom, but he develops inappropriate thoughts? There's a risk of things getting out of control."

Zhao Jiugu sighed and said, "Old Qin, he's so strong, he's completely out of control... We can't stop him. Besides, I think this man still cares about his country. He's never missed a single tax payment in all this time. With such incredible skills, he's never harmed a single person. The only time... no, the only two times he took action were once to punish the thief who stole the money meant for a girl with leukemia's life-saving treatment, and once to help our students in Ukraine."

His ambition is already very clear: to explore the stars and the sea, to travel freely in the universe. We can observe these things gradually.

But one thing I'm pretty sure of is that he has little interest in worldly power, and for a long time, he has entrusted most of the company's affairs to his girlfriend.

By the way, when he entrusted her with this task, the woman named Xiao Rui wasn't even his girlfriend yet, which shows how lazy he is.

He made it very clear that he simply wanted a foothold to freely enhance his own strength. Besides, we didn't completely trust him from the start; we can observe the situation gradually. For example, regarding Kyaukpyu Port, since we can't intervene, let him test the waters. If future developments truly follow his vision—with all economic cooperation, all ports leased out, and military bases permitted—then that land will become virtually indistinguishable from our own territory.

That land, especially that outlet to the sea, is of such great significance to us that I think it's not an exaggeration to value it.

Of course, we should always maintain sufficient respect for this person.

We must be cautious when choosing between cooperating with a truly exceptional person and becoming their enemy.

The old man in the middle remained silent, repeatedly watching the video of the shooting. Finally, he asked, "In Wuling Seventh Squad, are there any people who can withstand bullets like this? What is your judgment?"

Zhao Jiugu respectfully said, "Elder Xue, there are also such people in Wuling Seven. Comrade Zhu Zheng possesses the superpower of a body of steel, so bullets certainly can't penetrate it. But he won't be able to demonstrate it as easily as Li Weizhou, because his superpower is one less he can use each time. Once he empties a machine gun magazine, his superpower will be completely gone."

Our assessment is that although he is still a mortal being, he can still be killed with heavy weapons, such as heavy artillery and missiles. However, accurately locating him is one thing; if he truly possesses other supernatural abilities, the consequences of failing to kill him would be devastating.

An elderly man in military uniform frowned and said, "It's normal for superpowers to disappear after being used too much. It's always been like this for years. Why did a weirdo who can convert energy suddenly appear? Why don't we shut down his pig blood factories and see what happens?"

An old man next to him shook his head and said, "Then we'll have to tear off the mask of civility. Everyone needs to understand one thing: they may not necessarily only cooperate with us... The international environment is so bad right now, we can't afford to cause chaos at home. I think we can let Old Zhao give it a try."

The people at Kyaukpyu Port are indeed furious. We've been restraining ourselves, and it's necessary to be. But sending such a remarkable person over will also teach them a lesson.

The old man in the middle nodded slowly and said gently, "Alright. But as I said before, we don't interfere in other people's family affairs. That child's matter is up to him to decide."

Zhao Jiugu was greatly encouraged upon hearing this and said, "Great! I'll make the arrangements right away."

After he left in a hurry, an old man chuckled, "Old Zhao still hasn't given up. He probably wants to exchange it for that extraordinary person's method to maintain their powers. But I think it's best not to have this method until there's a breakthrough in America. Possessing a sharp blade breeds murderous intent, and for the people, any element of instability is detrimental. Giving this away is probably for the best..."

Furthermore, that Miss Xiao is worth nurturing. If that young Li is truly so extraordinary, then in a few years, it will be this Miss Xiao sitting and interacting with us.”

"Hehehe!"

As long as one is still a mortal being and not a god, then it is not something unacceptable.

Let's go and see.

……

"Squeak...!"

In the Great Qian Dynasty, the door to the east wing of the main house of the Li family opened, and Li Weizhou saw a slender figure sitting cross-legged in front of the door, waiting.

He looked at the sky in surprise; it was at least late in the morning, around five in the morning, another cold winter night…

"Husband, are you out of seclusion?"

Zhou Yueniang stood up in surprise and looked at Li Weizhou.

Li Weizhou was somewhat confused and said, "Yue Niang, what are you doing...?"

His young wife is a chivalrous woman from the martial arts world, someone who has truly witnessed life and death, not some heroine from a romance novel, so how could she...

"Okay, he's overthinking it," Zhou Yueniang said, a hint of shyness flashing in her amber eyes. "Yesterday, my husband suddenly went into seclusion. Without his help at night, I felt a bit... unsure of myself when practicing in the quiet room. So I came here to be closer to him, and that calmed my mind."

"Ah~~"

Li Weizhou said knowingly, "Come in quickly, come in quickly, I'll help you properly! Don't be shy, we're newlyweds, this is how it should be."

Zhou Yueniang glared at him, gave him a push, and shoved Li Weizhou through the door. She then walked in lightly and closed the door behind her.

……

P.S.: You guys are so fast...

Just to clarify, the Wuling Seventh Institute was the predecessor of the 749th Institute, established by Qian Xuesen. Not only in China, but also in America, the Soviet Union, and Japan, there were corresponding research institutions on paranormal phenomena. Those who have read the previous book know that during the 1980s, when paranormal abilities and qigong were popular, many people ridiculed them. But we weren't the only ones doing this. Whether it exists or not, frankly, I used to dismiss it as insane, but now it's hard to say. Dark matter in the universe objectively exists, but the laws of physics do not apply to it.
