destiny eternal calamity

The reason why Zhong Kuiying reacted so strongly is that learning this "All Laws Return to Nothingness" technique is of paramount importance to her.

This was her mother's only request of her.

For this reason, the Queen Mother of the West even sought out a senior member of the Mirage Clan to help her learn this technique through a dream.

But she was always just a step off, missing the key point.

"Senior Brother Wei, how long have you been practicing this Myriad Laws Returning to Nothingness Technique?"

"It'll only be a few months."

Li Wei dared not tell her the truth—that he had only practiced for an hour.

"A few months?!" Zhong Kuiying subconsciously felt that he was exaggerating.

But she also had a gut feeling that the other person wasn't lying.

From a young age, she was able to detect the most subtle emotional reactions of those she was chatting with.

She had previously suspected that Wei Li was not her mother's direct disciple because she felt that he was talking nonsense.

But now the other party seems to be bragging, yet shows no sign of feeling guilty.

"Wait for me a moment."

Zhong Kuiying threw down the herbs in her hand and walked towards the rest room on the second floor to the left on the third floor.

At this moment, the disciples on the first floor were in an uproar.

"He wasn't kicked out! Just who is he?"

"I heard that just as Wei Li was about to move into his dormitory, a young lady from the demon race took him away, and someone saw him being taken to Kunlun Palace!"

"Hiss! I've never heard of a man being allowed to live in Kunlun Palace!"

"Who exactly is he? Could he be the Palace Master's illegitimate son?" someone joked.

"Be careful what you say! The Palace Master is incredibly powerful; he might be able to hear you."

"Holy crap, I heard from the demon brothers who were delivering supplies that he saw the Blackwater Serpent, a powerful demon, personally escorting a masked boy up the mountain. Could it be him?!"

"Really? There seems to be more to this than meets the eye..."

In a short time, a multitude of opinions emerged.

It can only be said that Li Wei's behavior and the treatment he received were extremely unusual.

No wonder these disciples had such wild thoughts.

A short while later, Zhong Kuiying came downstairs with a book in her hand.

"Senior Brother Wei, could you tell me how to practice this technique?"

Zhong Kuiying wanted to test Li Wei's talent.

If the other party can master this technique within three days, then it wouldn't be surprising if they learn the Myriad Laws Return to Nothingness Force within a few months.

Li Wei stared blankly at the girl in front of him who looked like Zhao Yuqing but had a completely different personality.

Zhao Yuqing usually wears her hair in a single bun, exuding a free and unrestrained temperament, and looks like a female knight-errant.

To be honest, this kind of aura somewhat overshadows her good looks.

The woman in front of me, Zhong Kuiying, had the same face and figure as Zhao Yuqing, but she wore her hair in a low bun with small flowers tucked into one side, swaying gently with her steps, making her look very virtuous and gentle.

They have the same appearance, but different temperaments give them completely different feelings.

This left Li Wei somewhat dazed.

He reached out and took the cultivation manual from Zhong Kuiying, then quickly flipped through it.

Zhong Kuiying was a little puzzled. This technique was quite difficult. How could she understand it by flipping through it so quickly?

[Ding! The "Method for Preserving the Spirit in the Internal Organs" has been recorded. Do you wish to spend 16000 recharge points to add it to the database?]

From Li Wei's current perspective, this body-refining technique is extremely obscure; he never expected it to be only a fifth-tier technique.

It must be because the ancient cultivation method was too primitive in its structure.

After all, this thing was most likely something developed by the Queen Mother of the West, and it hasn't been optimized or adapted much by human cultivators.

Fortunately, the system doesn't care how difficult it is for you to learn; if you're at level five, this is the price.

Without the slightest hesitation, Li Wei directly spent 29120 recharge points (at a 30% discount) to acquire the "Internal Organs Spirit Preservation Method" and leveled it up to perfection.

Instantly, he felt that his body refinement skills in the Divine Treasury Realm had reached a stage of perfection.

Subsequently, the Perfected Realm of Returning to Nothingness completely devoured the "Internal Organs Preserving Spirit Method," tempering his five internal organs.

Li Wei had now fully understood the technique, so he began to explain it to Zhong Kuiying.

Since Zhong Kuiying was also at the Divine Treasure Realm, she had naturally learned this technique.

However, it took her a full six months to even get the basics down, and she's only at the proficiency level now.

Listening to Li Wei, a practitioner at the perfected stage, explain things now, I suddenly feel that many things that were previously unclear have become clear.

I couldn't help but listen, completely absorbed.

The disciples below were driven away by the demons inside the building.

To prevent them from continuing to spout nonsense and make outrageous statements.

However, many demons have already heard what these disciples said.

Although they dared not discuss it, they were secretly speculating about the relationship between the young man and the palace master.

Li Wei lectured for two whole hours, until the moon was high in the sky, before he finally broke free from his teaching mode.

Zhong Kuiying then realized that she had actually been standing and listening to the young man in front of her lecture for two hours.

Moreover, the other party genuinely understood the subject and explained it very well.

"Either he's a monster, able to master this technique after just one look, or he has a special relationship with his mother and had already learned this technique long ago..."

However, she benefited greatly from the other party's teaching in any way.

Wei Li's understanding of this technique may be the same as or slightly inferior to that of the creator, the Queen Mother of the West, but his ability to explain and teach is absolutely superior to that of the Queen Mother of the West.

If I were to have him explain the "Return to Nothingness" technique to me, would that allow me to break through that barrier and learn this skill?

Looking at Li Wei's sharp eyes behind his mask, Zhong Kuiying couldn't help but let her imagination run wild.

Since he is my mother's personal disciple, he is also my senior brother. It's not unreasonable for him to give me private lessons, is it?

She wanted to continue asking Li Wei about the "All Laws Return to Nothingness" technique, but suddenly realized that before today, the two of them were just strangers.

Forget it, there's no rush.

"Senior Brother Wei, thank you for your guidance. It has truly benefited Ying'er immensely. Ying'er has no way to repay you, but this Spirit Nourishing Pill has the effect of enhancing spiritual awareness. Please accept it as a token of my gratitude."

Zhong Kuiying took out a jade bottle from her bosom and said.

These were the leftovers from her use. Because they were so valuable, she hadn't known who to give them to before, so she had to keep them for herself.

Since this Senior Brother Wei Li is my mother's personal disciple and I have a favor to ask of him, he is a suitable recipient of the pill.

Li Wei's eyes lit up, and he took the jade bottle.

This Nourishing Spirit Pill is so rare that even a princess's wife can't get her hands on it, so of course he wouldn't refuse it.

Although this gift was too valuable, making him clearly indebted to Zhong Kuiying, it would be difficult for him to refuse if she made any further requests of him.

But he was happy to.

Have you not heard the story of the White Snake borrowing an umbrella?

Without the back-and-forth of borrowing and repaying, how could Xu Xian and Bai Niangzi's relationship have progressed so quickly?

Although he didn't have any particular thoughts about this celestial maiden who was very likely Zhao Yuqing's previous incarnation, he wanted to get closer to her as soon as possible and figure out the truth about the 'demon,' so the more interaction he had, the better.

"This elixir is far too precious, but it is indeed something I urgently need, so I will accept it without hesitation. If Your Highness needs any assistance in the future, please feel free to contact me."

Seeing that it was getting late, Li Wei did not linger any longer, so he bowed and took his leave, returning to his room in Kunlun Palace.

Zhong Kuiying stood upstairs, watching the boy's receding figure, and stood there for a long time.
